Well, it has been a few months since I've last posted. It seems I got caught up in the facebook craze for a while, but I'm back now, ready to take up where I left off.
My religious perspectives have not really changed - I'm still an agnostic, perhaps more decidedly so now, but I am still interested in religious faith and traditions. I still have leanings towards buddhism, but that is more superficial in nature (ie I do not have any desire to convert), I am still interested in christian origins, and I am still interested in hearing other people share their stories. I still get moments of nostalgia for my lost faith - an emotional ride that is quickly ended by rational thinking.
I tried an experiment on facebook and created a group specifically for those who are struggling with doubts about their faith or who have already left their faith. I called it Post-Christian (because that is my base) and although it did attract a few it never really caught on - perhaps I didn't market it well (or at all, really), or people have no real interest in the middle ground....for some it is all or nothing with no room for the journey between point A and point B.
Well, as it has been said, it is not the destination but the journey that matters most in the end.
