I guess I'm agnostic?

I guess I'm agnostic?
Hello all,

I'm a closeted agnostic.

I grew up in a christian family, that cared about god, but weren't psychotic about it either. I remember when the child abuse scandals came out and my parish's priest didn't condemn the actions, my father (who grew up catholic and literally spent his whole life around the church) left the church and we never really went back. I spent 9 years in a christian school, and by the end, it was borderline fucked up, we were spending way too much time on the bible, and being trained to convert people. It was scary at the end. Luckily I got out, but a lot of people didn't.

Anyway, I'm pretty much alone in my feelings.

Literally every person I know is a christian. I even have a few friends who are muslims. Everyone at work is christian, everyone at school. Would I like to come out to my friends and family? of course. But I've built a strong relationship with them and I don't want to lose them or hurt relationships with them either.

In all honesty, I would probably still be a christian myself if everyone I knew wasn't a complete hypocrite about it. That's what I think ultimately drove me away.

Well that felr great to get off my chest.

I suppose I should say that I do believe in one god. He is the most powerful god of all. His name is Jibbers Crabst and he's a Giant fire breathing lobster who lives behind the rings of Saturn.

With that out of the way:
I'm a guy
25 years old
agnostic
northeast ohio
I love to cook,
lift (start insanity tomorrow),
I hate my job,
I'm a full time student (accounting and finance)
studying hydroelectricity on the side

Also, if there's any single ladies in Northeast Ohio on here, hit me up!

If you need anything else, just ask.

thanks
