I guess I'll ignore and not let it annoy me.

If you do decide to ignore what you felt this time I'm hoping God will call on you again, if He does I'm always available to give you guidance.

Enough reason for me to know that religion is bullshit.

exactly

I don't even require total empirical proof, I'd just like to see proof beyond a reasonable doubt. But they don't have that much so they rely on faith.

Whenever anyone asks you to try god what they are really saying is succumb to self-hypnosis. You can quietly meditate and achieve inner peace without having to insert fairies, angels, demons or gods into the equation.

THEN,I got a phone call from a friend while I was in the hospitals she was basically saying god is real because all the time I would have died but didn't.(suicide)Then I went into how I feel about everyone has a purpose and we are connected in a way.

The she said "What you said is exactly what the bible says" and I was like many religions have a common morale and she was like "No"

she also says that no religion can be proven you have to go by faith.

she also mentioned having a relationship god

It may not be to a high degree but I'm feeling a lot of pressure to convert and it annoying

Firstly, I hope you're feeling a bit better now. Mental health issues fucking suck.

Secondly, you need to make a formal complaint. A paramedic has absolutely no right to attempt to push his religion on patients. It was completely unprofessional of him and his employer needs to know. Especially given the nature of your illness. The last thing a psych patient needs is to have potentially dangerous delusions encouraged.

Disgusting the way some religious people pounce on you when you're at a low point, and then say that god brought this upon you just so you can become a member of their club. Like that's a good thing.

Good luck with your condition and try your best to stay strong.
