Aphasia
ALL MYSTERIES MUST BE SOLVED
Hello!
I was raised a christian. Unlike my mother, father and sister I was a very luke warm christian. Right now I would describe myself as agnostic. My girlfriend and her brother are strong athiests. Being exposed to a different way of thinking has inspired doubt in my heart. I've been doing a lot of reading on evolution and watched tons of debates on the subject. I still have a lot of unawnsered questions, most of which are common problems like the "Problem of evil", the likelyhood of the theory of evolution, Noah's arc shenannigans, etc.
Talking with my mother about my concerns brought her to tears. I hate that. I wish I could continue to ignore the things that don't make sense, like I have for a long time. But more than that I want to be honest with myself. I'm tired of meandering softly on the issue.
So, next logical step? Consult the great thinkers of Skullknight.net of course! I would love to hear your voice. Do you believe in a God? Were you raised in a religious environment? If not, why? If so, what is your reason? Does faith play a big role in your life? What would you reccomend for someone in my position?
