I have some questions about it.
1.Why did you studied these languages ?
2.Why did you stopped to believe in Christianity after 35 years ?
3.What was your christian denomination ?
1. I assumed that knowing the biblical languages would give me greater certainty that I would grasp the 'intended' meaning of the given texts. Did it? On the whole.... not really. The interpretive challenges and ambiguity still remained.
2. There are far too many reasons to list in this introductory thread.
3. I was never part of a church or denomination. My parents were atheists who let me find my own path. Long story short, the only denomination I can say I identified with was Universalism - even though I was never an actual member.
