Also what made you really lose faith (if you ever had any at all)?
Also welcome to the forumDidn't see your introduction thread before
It can be a bit unnerving at times being both black and atheist. Honestly it's probably why I don't connect with the black community as well as I do with others.
I lost faith when I realized just how many different flavors of religion there are. I was asking myself questions like "Why should I believe in this god and not that god?" and "why do people in this country believe in a different god than in that country?" and I just put two and two together.
Thanks, yea lol I tend to jump in and out and sometimes just lurk for a while.
