so, my boyfriend spends hours upon hours on different forums on the internet. between his video gaming and countless hours on the internet i have decided to join a forum. finding a forum that will keep my attention has been an extremely hard task. i really enjoy running, so i joined a running forum. i think i looked at it one day, the day i joined, and i haven't been back. it just really wasn't the place for me. running is neat, talking about it isn't. i was raised in a baptist church, but over the years have developed different beliefs. i was reading on wikipedia about agnosticism and the thing that really struck me about this particular belief was a quote i read by robert g. ingersoll. he says, "We can be as honest as we are ignorant. If we are, when asked what is beyond the horizon of the known, we must say that we do not know." all i really want to put out into the world about God, Jesus, religion, life, eternal life, hell whatever else someone has a strong belief in, is that we don't know anything for sure. i want to be able to say that i don't know and i want to feel okay about it. i struggle with it, because i've always been taught to believe otherwise...but deep down, the things that i really feel, and the things that i want to say translate into the fact that the only thing i'm certain of is complete uncertainty.

Welcome vlad.

There's nothing wrong with your outlook on the whole religion issue.

Now this is just my opinion but that deep down felling you described is your logical mind trying to wake you up and make you really thinka bout the everythign you've been taught throughout your life and how it doesn't actually make sense when you thinka bout it objectively.

Just my 2 cents.
