I was a "born-again" christian. I came to this assumption in November of 2012. I had assumed I experienced a divine encounter, when in reality I just quickly assimilated my own morality and worldview with an existing flawed one. I had went on an atheist Facebook page and attempted to learn more as to why atheists didn't believe in God. My first questions to The Bible were raised from there and gradually my questions grew and my doubt along with it to the point of every other day I would say "God or no God." I claimed to have previously been an atheist due to The Bible's claim that "God is love" and since I previously didn't believe in love due to personal reasons I assumed I also didn't believe in God and could say I was atheist. It wasn't until a friend of mine introduced me to a few natural sciences that completely contradict The Bible that I decided that maybe The Bible was wrong. I dug deeper into the realm of science and learned the refutations against The Bible and essentially all religion and decided that I can't possibly believe in any of this and remain logically honest. I decided that while there may be a supernatural in this universe it has not given much if any evidence to its existence and without evidence I can't believe in something. Most Christians would claim that The Bible is evidence for God, but that would be like saying, "This napkin is the one true religion because it says it right here on the napkin!" I have not yet told my Christian friends or family because I am so involved in the church. I am considering doing a social experiment and studying personal reasons for "belief" in what has no evidence and possibly taking a look at personal testimony of Christians and using psychology to provide alternative reasons to their "faith."
I used to pray... but then I realized I could talk to myself and save 10% too. Who wouldn't go for that?
