Any attempts at converting me only turn me away from matters of faith. (not talking about you guys, you guys are great). I'm having a bit of a dilemma somewhere else. Someone is trying hard to send me info about God...really trying to make me believe. I'm not sure what to do. This person means well, but how do I let her know that I'm not ready? Do I just ignore her?
I've been turned off. This is what draws me back to atheism all the time. Religion doesn't appeal to me. I want to read the Bible some day, but only as a piece of literature, not as a book of facts.
I think the fear of death brought on this latest, "wish there was a God" phase. I'm okay with there being no god in the universe. I'm okay with nothingness after death.
