wow, this is the last place I was expecting to read this! ^ ^
VGC is classically a hellhole when it comes to faith, most people here enjoy blaming the society and past generations for their struggles.
At least this is the idea I get with threads like 'let's talk about the bad things Christianity has done', making it sound like Jesus is all about the few bad people in the church... so wrong.
Modern atheists present their views as superior to other people's opinions and refer to science like it proves atheism, which is not the case of course.
I don't talk about my faith either - unless triggered by arrogance where I try to do it in the kindest way possible.
I guess I like giving little discrete hints some times, if there is a reason I see myself as mentally healthy, it is Jesus Christ, so it's mostly about sharing what has helped me.
I grew up as an Orthodox Christian, then became an atheist for most of my early 20s, at some point I realized how lost I was and how toxic and pointless everything felt, I also realized that the most inspiring people I ever met were Christians, so then I knew I was in the wrong place.
I believe in a unified Christian church - Apostles did not have a denomination after all, just the original faith.
I may have grew up as Orthodox, but I relate with Catholic and Protestant spirituality and church services just as much, to me it's all just Christian, the basic teachings are the same.
Open to a group on Discord or here - I used to read and analyse the bible a lot, also how it relates to modern science and psychology. : )
don't mind my username, that was more than 10 years ago, I'm a different person now, amazing how people change ^_^
