Am I an apostate if I never was truly religious?

Gatovicolo comments on Feb 16, 2018:

Apostasy is the abandonment of a religion. So, it depends upon how you view abandonment. I think your former fellow Christian would think so, but I think it’s readonable for to assume you were never a member to begin with. It depends upon your measure I suppose. If behavior sets are your measure, then you are. If you’re personal stance and self identity is the measure, then your not.

In our world, you don’t assume someone wants something. You expect them to communicate that desire. I’m pretty sure your friend knew what you wanted. He just expected some honest straight forward communication.
