Why did you become atheist twice if you hated it so much? You sure like to make yourself uncomfortable.

I converted to Taoism after being an atheist as an adolescent. I read the Tao Te Ching at 17, and everything in it resonated with my personal experience of the world. I don't know that this resonance implies any specific metaphysical beliefs about the world, but the writings of Laozi and Zhuangzi resonate deeply with me. Since that time, over the coarse of thirty years, I have converted to a brand of Hinduism known as Shaktism, again for much the same reason: when I contemplated the Shakti, it resonated with what I experienced in my life. I'm now a devoted Hindu.

I became an atheist once. The first time I was born into it, literally. Maybe I'll be an atheist again someday, who knows.

You would have to provide good reason to change my thinking that it would be more rational to be an atheist tor. At the moment it isn't looking good for you Wink

How about you? Why don't you become a Christian?
