Nice questions FTR

No
3) If you answered "yes" to #2, do you currently subscribe to the religion you were raised in?
4) Have you ever considered other religions/philosophies at some stage?
Yes
5) If you answered "yes" to #4, what were they?
Animism, Shamanism, Aboriginal (top 3 by a country mile), Hinduism, Buddhism... All these I looked into sincerely.
6) What reaffirms your beliefs as being correct over other religions/philosophies?
Christianity is one evolutionary step beyond the rest, in that connection with the divine is achieved.

Absolutely. It's an integral part of my faith to doubt. I believe that to be a condition.

It's part of my life and I live it. I'm a human just like everyone else subject to the same weaknesses. I think it's in the underlying reasoning that shapes person.

19) If you could travel in time, what year/era would you go visit and where would you go?
Pre industrialisation to see if people really we're so much happier and more fulfilled. Into the future to see future tech.
20) So far, have you enjoyed your stay at AF.org?
Yeah sure lol. Sometimes I feel the place is too negative and I have to step away. I give lots of threads a wide birth and then might check them when I'm bored and find good stuff in them. Some people and things are frustrating sometimes, and some things people say I find unbelievable. I'm a people watcher and find it all fascinating. I like the gutsy approach to faith/religion etc, and I guess it's in my roots, and where I feel at home.
