Hey Jacob! thanks for the interesting, and personal post.
My only question... why be a Christian? You sound more like my own younger brother who is an agnostic.
We were brought up Christians (thanks to my mom), and he is questioning because of his more natural intellect telling him (over our spiritual nature) there is no proof...and there's only the "happiness he makes himself". And, of course the: "Jesus is a nice guy" deal.
Your indoctrination seems marred with various things that you kind of correlate with your religion. So, why the struggle? Shouldn't it be easy to just give up? Give me one good reason....very good reason to be a Christian?
Sorry to be the "devils advocate"... I don't see a point in pushing any agendas on you.
