Message | I absolutely LOVE your site!
I am currently deconverting now - I work at a Christian institution and it's SO hard to continue.... I do believe, like you suggest, that there is something spiritual going on with Christianity, but I honestly don't want anything to do with it anymore as an organized religion.
One critique - A couple of your pages mention Zeitgeist as a source. I have watched the videos (the 2nd and 3rd are excellent btw) and the first video is quite.... well, made up. The jumble of facts about pagan gods like the 25th of December being a common birthday, virgin births, rising gods, etc., is honestly a bunch of hooey. That would be the one weak point I spotted in all of your debunking.
That being said - I agree that a lot of the Christian religion mirrors other religions and that Christianity has made Jesus into something he wasn't.
Needless to say, my conservative Christian mother is completely freaking out.
I am moving into some Eastern/New Age thought and can't wait to find a place to meditate that is actually connected to nature somehow - I am currently surrounded by concrete and factories.
Thanks so much for putting in all the effort to expose some of the absurdities that I've been struggling with!
May your journey be full of Light, Love, and Peace |
