"But if you are feeling sinister Go off and see a minister He'll try in vain to take away the pain of being a hopeless unbeliever" - Belle and Sebastian Sums up me, if stripped down somewhat. I feel inappropriate reading the Bible, because all I do is spot all the things which I disagree with. The thing I really don't understand is how so many good people I know [not just on the net] are religious and yet I can't find in the Bible what makes them that way. I'm searching for the single teaching that will click, make it all make sense, make me realise what I'm missing out on in life. I know there is something missing, I know people like yourself have something I don't. But I can't find this magic teaching which will let me have what you have. If that doesn't make sense, i apologise. This has swallowed my thoughts for some time. That's why I'm not publishing much- I seem to write lots of private stuff right now.
It makes perfect sense, MT. There's nothing magical about it, but there's not much logical about it either, which is the real obstacle. You seem to be the analytical type like I am, and the whole thing is just too easy, too...magical, as you put it...at first glance to be believable, right

I may move to emails at this point, or messaging on youtube or something. How can I talk to you? The point is everyone can see this, and this goes a bit deeper than I want to put on show, you get me?
