Anne Rice has had a religious conversion: She's no longer a Christian.
The 68-year-old author wrote Wednesday on her Facebook page that she refuses to be "anti-gay … anti-feminist" and "anti-artificial birth control."
She added that "In the name of … Christ, I quit Christianity and being Christian. Amen."
Her publisher, Alfred A. Knopf, confirmed Thursday that the posting was by Rice.
Rice is best known for "Interview With a Vampire" and other gothic novels. Raised as a Catholic, she had rejected the church early in her life, but renewed her faith in recent years and in 2008 released the memoir "Called Out of Darkness: A Spiritual Confession."

Personally I never knew she was a Christian, but I guess if I would have read her bio all those years of reading her novels then I would have known that. Kudos to Anne Rice!...
