You have the wrong impression of the word Encryption. All SQL Server encryption is one way - PERIOD. Once encrypted, you can never go back - unless you figure it out.
HOWEVER, if you set all of the tables to be SELECT to sa only (assuming that you are sa), then nobody can get to your data - except you. Sorry - but encryption is out of the question as far as encrypting something and then unencrypting it. No chance!!!

Yes but he didn't specifally ask about SQL Server encryption. If you read the linked thread, there are ways of doing it.
