I was born to an irish/english christian dad and a some what superstitious/christian mother. I basically soaked up everything they told me about the universe "God created the earth in 6 days" etc. I used to read the bible from a young age and was never given any material to read apart from christian books etc.
I went to a Lutheran primary school where they taught me more about this "loving God".the stories about the devil used to scare the shit outta me. anyway so i got to my teen years and started questioning a lot of the stuff they were feeding me. Most of my questions were answered with "no1 knows God plans" "God works in mysterious ways". I stopped going to church for a while and started doing drugs. anyway the drugs didn't help me too much because i developed a mental illness (schizophrenia) I started seeing demons and all kinds of crazy stuff. I thought i was possessed and even had a pyschotic episode where i was "excersised" basically some1 praying for you to get rid of your demons and speaking in tongues and all that. hahaha it's hilarious looking back at it. anyway i became a fully reborn christian and never doubted the bible again for at least 10 years.
I even started taking the bible literally which started causing some problems because as we all know the bible is plauged with inconsistencies yet i kept on and on until finally i asked myself a question which was unanswerable by christian logic (seriously ask this to a christian next time you are debating or what ever)
"how can an all knowing all loving God create humans he knows will go to hell forever"
anyway that's a bit of my story im just a recent convert and im still on the path to enlightenment. thanks all Peace out
