Ten+ Years

So that's it- those were the two big things for me. Those two things, more than anything else, really led me to walk away from my faith. There were definitely other things along the way, no doubt, but it's been a really long time and I can't remember any of the specifics. Whatever other things there were have gotten mixed in with all of the other issues I've been thinking about since then.
So all of the following posts are going to be along those lines- a mix of all the stuff that's been going through my mind since that time; stuff I've thought about and re-thought about, problems I have with what I used to believe and problems I have with accepting what Christians try to tell me nowadays. Basically, why I can never be a Christian again. Read on, if you're so inclined. It's not going to be elegant writing, that's for sure; I'll probably repeat a lot of stuff, because I tend to do that. I'll probably jump around to totally different topics a lot, repeat myself some more, and generally not explain things the way I'd like to. But at least I'll have said all the stuff I've wanted to say to you, but never could; and hopefully, by writing it down here, I can finally stop thinking about it so damn much. (But mostly I just hope I can answer some of the questions you've had over the years, without raising too many more.)
