Thread: What do you believe in?

I'm Orthodox Christian, was baptized in Jerusalem Orthodox Church.
Although for a long time I was an atheist. After the years, a person comes to faith.

For some reason this reminds me of something one of the priests said when I was in school."Faith will always find the person who gives up hope of ever finding it."

Probably, he was right.

As a young child I believed in Santa but was later scared of being labelled a Santanist

This is so true.

What do you get when you cross an Agnostic, an Isomniac and a Dyslexic???? A Guy who stays awake all night wondering if there really is a DOG! lol

I voted Christian, but I admit to being a pretty rubbish one.

I was raised as one but spent years as an atheist, then became agnostic then became troubled that without some form of faith my life was lacking something. At which point it appeared to me that my previous views were basically denying a faith which I always had. My problem now is that I still can't bring myself to go to church, or take it beyond a general overall belief.

Wow us christians are winning thats hasnt happened since 1099.

I would say personal circumstance would have more to do with it, not age.....

I grew up Methodist, became an atheist in college. Methodism is what Eddie Izzard would call a 'hobby church', you just dress up nice, sing a few hymns, and then go home. At one point in my life I was in the process of converting to Judaism, but that's a long and convoluted tale.
