What I do believe is that where we live and our existence was designed and is not an accident.

What I do not know is exactly what—if anything—that means for me.

None of the thousands of competing narratives on that point make any sense at all to me.

I was raised a Christian but was an agnostic at 22-23. I read everything I could get my hands on about every possible path and critically examined them. One way stood out heads and shoulder over the rest.

Each person has to find their own way to that path. In fact, I would say that the path will speak to you when you seek it with an open heart and mind.

What is that path? I leave that to you.

I've been there.

This sounds weird, but ask him.

If you’re genuinely agnostic, then ask God directly — persistently — if He’s real. But do it with critical care.

The mind can play tricks, and emotional or psychological pareidolia can make us see patterns that aren’t actually there.

So ask honestly, but test everything.

If God is real, He doesn’t need illusions or mental projections to make Himself known.

When I do not know something, and it really interests me, I will search for it, track it down, and weigh the facts.
