Ex-Christians have a lot of shorthand ways of talking approximately how it feels to be deconverted. Often that shorthand involves scenes from movies like The Matrix. But there's one I'd say gives that classic example a elope for the money, and it's been on my mind lately. Today I want to introduce you to the very odd duck that is the 1974 lively Jack and the Beanstalk--and why it reminds me so much of my own time in Christianity.
