In a recent interview, pop star Benson Boone discusses his departure from the Mormon faith, citing a disconnect with the religious experiences of others. Despite feeling isolated in his upbringing, he found solace in talking to friends who shared similar feelings. Boone's parents support his exploration of beliefs, prioritizing his autonomy over strict adherence to their views. Additionally, he suggests a nuanced approach to political beliefs, criticizing the binary nature of political identity. His upcoming album, "American Heart," is set for release this spring or summer.
Benson Boone expressed his desire to break free from strict religious identities, stating, 'I have my own opinions...some are from this religion, some from no religion.'
Recounting his struggles with religious experiences, Boone revealed, 'I never felt it as physically present as they did, and so I was always confused and frustrated.'
He noted that his parents support his journey apart from their own beliefs, saying, 'Whatever I come to, and whatever I feel is right, that's what they want for me.'
Discussing his political beliefs, Boone argued against binary thinking in politics, asserting, 'People think if you have one or two views that are on the left or right, that you have to be the left or on the right.'
