There is nothing about anything you post that doesn't belong on this forum.

You are welcome to stay, as far as I'm concerned.

There is no litmus test that your beliefs have to pass in order to belong here.

You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.
