Hello I am new here. I am an ex christian and here are some of my beliefs

[Pandas United]

Hello all! I am from new York and I am an agnostic, very very close to atheism. Basically I will put it this way. If there was a god and he beamed down to earth, I would acknowledge he exists but I wouldn't worship him. Not after reading some of the worst passages in the bible. Sure there is a lot of good stuff, but it's with its bad stuff too. And I have tried learning science and religious science, about like young earth vs. old earth and what not and just to me, not that I understand everything because I am not a science professor, the big bang and the age of the universe being 4.5 something billion years old makes a hell of a lot more sense than the religious version of that. Everyone is entitled their opinion and I don't have a problem with that. And about me stopping being a Christian, well I officially was one, but in my mind, I never really believed. I just made empty prayers and thought some of the stuff they taught at church was just ridiculous. I still think religion should be looked at because it is fascinating. But looked at for it's history, not taken literally. I hope to get to know you all. Thank you for reading!

Hello p9,

Your presumed troubles you alluded to that turned you away from faith have fairly steadfast answers available. But, to eschew from derailing this thread, let me just say nice to meet you

We can chat elsewhere if you so please.

Cheers
