But I do think I am a Christian, I just am going through a difficult time right now. And I am so tired of this mercury thing too and so many different viewpoints on it. Just am feeling a bit down about everything, but trying to snap out of it. Everything seems so frustrating, so irritating. Maybe that's a symptom of toxicity, I don't know. I feel like I want to scream or something sometimes.
Also I am tired of refusal of people to embrace another point of view in another aspect of my life. It seems like no one is ever open to another pov.
Russ commented that my views change. In some ways yes, in other ways no. I was a vegetarian when I came here, I still am. I want to be vegan, but I am finding it difficult (but it is my ultimate goal). I have always seen circumcision as unnecessary. I have always been pro-life, and anti-hormonal birth control. I have always said I am a generic Christian, searching for the "right outlet". I have always been a promoter of living as naturally as possible. But I will be honest and if what I previously believed is for some reason cast doubt upon, I will re-assess. For many years I was a Protestant. It might seem like I am fair-weathered, but I happen to be on this board at a time when I left my last church, which I belonged to for 12 years. I was no longer happy with the teachings, so at the moment I am seeking a new outlet (which I believe is important) and this means exploring several. And I have got so disillusioned, I honestly have questioned the whole thing and feel I am more Deist-Pagan. And yet, I think I am still Christian because I do believe in Jesus and Virgin Mary. Because I was raised a Protestant, and have concluded I am not one any more, this naturally means exploring the various branches of Catholicism. So, in that way, it is unfortunate that I am here at this time of my life, because I am currently exploring different denominations and my beliefs in this respect are not cast in stone.
I don't meant to offend anyone, I just am so fed-up with things at the moment, in many respects.
