-And what's "interesting"? Well, frankly, I don't even know. I guess I just love people's backstories (to the extent that they wish to share them)
If that's the case, I will gladly share my story.
I am currently an ex-Orthodox from a Christian, Orthodox family. I always loved asking complex questions and giving philosophical answers to them. I got into the question of "Is there a divine creator?" in the previous year, when I was thirteen years old. I sincerely thought that the two possible finite answers "yes" or "no" were equally unjustified. I was searching for what the theistic and the atheistic side of the argument says about the subject, I read the Quran and the Bible and I came to the conclusion that it is unknowable with our present day knowledge. Trying to explain something without observable or testable evidence is absurd. I am open to the possibility that there is a god out there, but if someone is to convince me so that I can know it for certain, he has to present me evidence.
