If only I could find the way to connect with my innerself and discover the truth as you have and would have no need for concepts of any kind. What a glorious world this coudl be indeed. It's not a universal truth, but it is a part of a few people's lives, and changing ones mind is still...
So you deconverted... and found your "own path" ... like a ton of other people. My interest is more for academic purposes than figuring out what to do myself. :) I want to see if my hypothesis was at least close to what I thought.
I have a few questions for anyone who has undergone a conversion and/or deconversion of faith. I'd like to know the age that you converted, your main reason for doing so, and what type it was. Type means either slowly over time, suddenly/overnight, or did you shop around for a bit?
funny... I seem to think the same thing about your posts :)
you're right, how dare I step into your personal life. I'll give you a warning, don't give me a warning :p
Hey there... I'm Panda....
Just wanted to comment on a few things here. Firstly, Yeshua probably wouldn't have wanted Christianity to be the ultimate popularity contest, and would be ashamed that you see it as such.
