Why ex-pastor apologised to Christians

Ex-pastor who quit Christianity shares his observation
Meanwhile, TheTalk.NG previously reported that a former pastor had shared what he noticed about his life since he dumped Christianity.
The former preacher noted that he did not quit Christianity due to offences and frustration, adding that he left at a time when he was about to start making money from it, suggesting that his departure from the faith was not due to financial reasons. His post read in part:
“I didn’t leave Christianity and religion in its entirety because of offenses or frustration, in fact I left at a time I was about to start making money from it. I had spent my resources helping others and spreading Jesus Christ until I found out the gospel wasn’t true. I metamorphosed from an Apostle of Jesus Christ to an Apostle of Knowledge and I haven’t stopped helping people and doing my best to contribute my quota to making the world a better place…”
