I have converted to Christianity

[Annik]

In my view, emotions are basis of subjective consciousness, so I think it is unfair to say that "emotions do nothing".

At which point did I say "religion" is better than science at explaining things? The scientific method, for which I have an incredibly vast amount of respect, is exceptional at explaining certain things, such as how gravity works, for example. I think certain religious philosophies are superior to science at explaining the subjective experience of unconditional love. As I have stated on numerous, explaining love as a chemical reaction is valid, but it lacks depth; it does not explain the value, meaning or the profound nature of love.

Why Christianity? Because it feels right and true at this very moment; this might change tomorrow, but for the time being, it feels right. And before you say "you cannot rely on feelings", read about the importance of personal experience in the philosophical movement of existentialism.

Existence precedes Essence. Christianity is the exact opposite of that.
