From atheism to Christianity? How so?
RE: From atheism to Christianity? How so?
(December 26, 2013 at 7:24 am)agapelove Wrote: I can imagine what any rationalist might think when reading this, because it is utterly irrational on the worlds terms. You could call it a psychotic break, or confirmation bias, or any number of things. What I can testify to is the change in my life because I am a completely different person now. I am not problem free, but, I used to be depressed and now I am happy. I used to have a lot of fear and now I am at peace. I used to be addicted to many things and now I am sober. I used to use the internet too much..and I still use the internet too much. Tongue You get the picture..

So that's my story and I am sticking to it. Smile

It's natural to be comforted by a lie. Santy Clause be comin' to town and all that. Some people seek the truth, some seek an excuse to change who they are... 'Ey, you're only human, right?

You pretty much nailed it with confirmation bias. I only wonder how you can basically state how what you are saying makes no sense, yet you believe it anyway. You pretty much gave the reasons for why you made a poor choice, and also showed you are capable of improving your life. I am entirely unsure why you are reassured now, believing there is a god who will damn anyone you know to an eternity of damnation for not believing in him if they are non-believers, but, hey, it's about worrying about yourself, not others...right? I am sure that you will try to "save" them, of course, but then, if you so readily admit how you have committed logical fallacies, I wonder how you can actually believe what you claim to believe. Unless you're lying to yourself. And you believe yourself, of course.
