I'm curious are you guys are religious?
@basedbagel - I'm no atheist, but I generally despise churches. The dynamic is all wrong in a church - far too much obedience.
I'm not a Christian either... Trinity never made sense, and after carrying Jesus's message to its logical conclusion, Jesus isn't someone I would choose to follow.
I believe God has many names, and there's room for mystery. I'm leaning toward Paganism these days.
Also, I had a near death experience during a young suicide attempt many years ago, that convinced me of ➡️
@basedbagel - some things.
1) There is a God
2) Death is not the end of existence
3) And the implication of me not dying, is that we are meant to live for as long as we are able.

I understand many people will find this to be unbelievable, or will dismiss a near death experience as hallucination.
I have paid good money to hallucinate before... and I know it wasn't that. But if others are dismissive, it doesn't bother me. 💁🏻♂️ I just happen to know these things, and that's enough for me.
@basedbagel - The experience was humbling though, and left me with more questions than answers.
Beyond those three personal discoveries listed above, anything is up for debate, as far as I'm concerned.
And the way I see it, whatever or whoever God may be... If he wants us to know him, then asking questions is always fair game. 🍻
Thanks for sharing, I'm glad you're still here with us.
I actually heard God's voice before just chilling on a couch I've never smoked/drank before so I don't see what else it could have been.
I can't stand the church either as I was bullied there and found most kids were there for the same reason I was: Their parents forced them to go.
@37712 @basedbagel - Yeah... I wasn't anti-vax 3 years ago. But nowadays? Fuck that shit with a rusty hammer.
There are vaxed folks I will miss, but societal collapse is never easy. 🫗 We just do the best we can.
@basedbagel @YoMomz 3 days before the vax mandate God gave me 3 fucked up scray nightmares of the future of what the end goal of the vax was going to be, got woken up 3 times that night and the nightmares where one after another, I could not get any sleep that night, the vax is basically the beginning of the marc of the beast, I am never taking a vax ever again in my life neither is my family. Vax ppl are poisoned not just from the vax but from their mind.
