Alternatehistory95 Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Hello. My name is Jeffrey. But I often go by Jeff. I'm 23 going on 24, and I like Dragonball and anime in general, as well as metal and classical music. (no subject) Desirae Q Hi Show 6 read messages Jeffrey Newell to Desirae 1 minute ago Details I left the Christian faith due to issues and questions with the faith. From 2011 to 2016 and part of 2017 and 2018 I was atheist. I'm slowly transitioning back to atheism as of right now. With all the things going wrong in the world, and with all the things wrong with the Bible and organized religion in general, and with my long-standing love of science and reason, I feel that I'm better off not believing in God. I'm transitioning like this. Deism-Agnosticism-atheism. Taking baby steps. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

◊ DestinyTurtle ◊ Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Welcome, Jeffrey! Yeah, noticing all the things that is wrong with the world can really give you some perspective, and noticing too many things can eventually get you kicked out of religion whether you wanted to or not! Hope we can help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alternatehistory95 Posted January 16, 2019 Author Share Posted January 16, 2019 I just had a discussion with a family friend about my issues with the Christian faith. It turns out she actually agrees with me on how full of bullshit Christianity is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanForsman Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Don’t know if you’ll take comfort in knowing this or not but you’re path (“Deism-Agnosticism-atheism. Taking baby steps.“) is a very common one that many here have taken and it isn’t uncommon for that path to take years to travel down. Nice to have you here.
