Because I was and because I am baptized as such for what it's worth. One day I asked my self "what is God" and realized that I had no clue what I believed it. Do you? Honestly, I don't know what God is. That's not the same as denying him. I am also not dissuading anyone to believe. I just ask the question.
I’m inclined to believe your self-report.
I have no great reason to disblieve it wholesale.
However, it DOES PERSISTENTLY APPEAR that you are not all that consistent with your own precepts
nor all that honest with yourself.
You persistently appear to base your convictions and perspectives on
. . . essentially . . .
chaos.
And then to exact the most prissy of rigid pseudo-logical pontifications and pseudo-super-rationalist pretend-scientific house of cards built on that chaos.
And, then, to more or less rail at others for not subscribing to and submitting to your arbitrarily narrow and rigid application of your arbitrary definitions of “logical” and “evidence.”
I don’t think it takes more than an arm’s length perspective to see that as grossly contradictory, absurd to the max and horrifically inconsistent—as well as out of touch with the realities most of us hereon take as foundationally solid and REAL.
I keep asking myself . . . what is God perceived to have done or not done that was so horrible that the result was this convoluted hodge-podge of rationalized avoidance???
Whence cometh this seemingly haughty, super-lofty perspective that acts so freely authoritative and justified in taking God to task for running things contrary to the holder of the perspective’s sensibilities?
In my experience, pseudo-super-rationalists tend to be chronically, bone-marrowly angry at the God they deny the existence of
and/or
reared in such a way that they end up having monumental chips on their shoulders egging them on to jousting with God as though they were God’s equals.
I’ve read your protestations to the contrary . . . about how benignly wonderful you are in ‘REAL LIFE’ etc.
Yet the evidence on our screens seems to be all on the other side, in terms of the above observations.
At least, occasionally, it is mildly interesting.
Not on purpose perhaps, but clearly you are sowing seeds of doubt.
What is your goal in posting here?
Is it merely to state your opinion or is it to encourage others to think like you; to doubt everything and believe nothing?
Asking questions isn't wrong unless you never find the answer. Then it's just sad.
Life is more than speculation.
Have some kids, Kosta. Then you'll see Him.
