I am finding that I am very angry because I am judged not only by someone who doesn't believe in god (someone who one would think would support me because we feel very similar on the subject) and I am judged by those who do believe in god. It seems as if everyone thinks I am going thru a phase and I will come to their side a I grow. I have been a agnostic sense I was 16, I think this is all I will ever be. i just feel a lack of support and sometimes I feel alone. |
Well, you have support here, but do not depend on anyone but yourself when it comes to inner peace.
For instance, I was banned from many 'so called' Buddhist sites such as Esangha, Tricycle, Shambhala, Buddha Chat, 12 step Buddhists, Sangha-Pauahtun, eBuddhism, Etc.
Where would I be with my practice if I depended solely on these forums?
