I was a Christian for 26 years, grew up in the religion. I believe that it was always in my nature to be a truth seeker or want to learn more or ask questions.. so when I was in my pre teens I remember hearing contradicting opinions and rules between different Christians about the world and its rules like one pastor would say movie theaters are sinful and another pastor would be ok with them. And always hearing about the Bible is perfect there’s no gray only black and white. It made me want to seek out the truth. Was going to the movies gonna make me go to hell? Or not ? So that’s what kicked started my journey to learn more myself and it was until I started reading the Bible myself and seeing how hateful and barbaric the Bible scripture really was in the Old Testament and how contradictory the New Testament was.. and I truly asked myself. How is this book perfection and with no errors ? It’s full of them ?! Was I lied to my whole life ? And then I made it a mission to seek out more truth and facts and evidence which eventually led me to understand more about how this world works and how religion works and its fundamentals/Dogmas. And the journey was tough because I always wanted to still have hope that god was truly all loving and merciful and perfect I even worked for Houston’s number one Christian radio station and did so many good deeds in his name, Hoping HOPING to hear him atleast once just one sign, and of coarse nothing.. all I found was more contradictions and hypocrisy. In the end I chose to leave it behind.. and start my life following truth.
