Advice: Leave what you dislike, - nobody gets any good results from something they don't like.
But while it is OK to not like something an leaving it - it is not to play the "Statement Of Conversion:
The speaker says then: "I used to believe in X".
It is quite a weak form of asserting expertise. The speaker is implying that he has learned about the topic, and now that he is better informed, - has rejected X. So perhaps he is now an expert, - and this is an implied "Argument From false Authority".
Yeah right - FALSE authority
