I'm more of a believer now, because I've had an experience. In all things, it's not just enough to take other people's words for it, which religion is often proposing. All religions rest on people having faith that the stories they are reading really happened once upon a time. But, to experience something, and to have it change your outlook and life, and so on...that compels me more to view it as not mere coincidence, and shake it off. But, to each their own. lol
Out of interest and if you don't mind, can you describe your faith experience? (just interested, not gonna criticize)
I shared it in pm with two people here, and not that I don't 'want' to...but I can see that then going off the rails. lol
