Gunna jump in on page 13 without reading any of the other 12 pages so excuse me if I say something already discussed. (Also I'm not reading page 13 cause that is waaaayyyy tooo much in each of those posts to start paying attention now lol)
As for reasonable Christian, I think my husband is one. He is catholic but he is a really bad one. He agrees with evolution because he thinks the bible isn't the word directly from god. He says it is man made and therefore the stories aren't real. I think he uses religion as a coping mechanism because of his job. He is a paramedic and he sees some awful shit so I think he needs to tell himself all those innocent people went to a better place after what they went through. He doesn't preach, he prays silently to himself, he hides his saint pendant in his shirt, and he happily mocks his own religion because he knows most of it is crazy talk.
