conflicted constantly
I am 31 years old and lately I've been questioning my belief in the Bible, not the moralistic values just the Biblical truth relating to God and salvation.
About my solid belief: there is a God the perfection of the universe makes that evident to me.
Background: Abused as a child, raped and almost killed by my father multiple times, extreme emotional abuse that led to self mutilation and extreme mistrust of man kind. Multiple suicides within my family including my father and multiple instances of alcohol abuse.
Ran away at sixteen and have been moving and working from state to state ever since. I.Q. of 144, I'm former military trained in 4 martial arts was a licensed armed guard and unarmed guard for two states and a bouncer on Bourbon street for six years. I have a high school diploma a GED a trade certificate in business can build a house from the ground up candidates have a class a cdl, electrical and machinical engineering training in the navy geological studies in college ect.
Premise of belief: might must see an intellectual bases of a religious belief I cannot accept on faith without evidence.
Reason: spiritually and emotionally I am damaged. I am always in control and cannot allow myself to be vulnerable for any period of time which has exponentially hurt any relationship I could have with others. I can not drink without ending up in tears wanting to take my pain out on others. I need healing.
The argument: What God should I seek after and why? What evidence of that belief exists.
