Are you me? Same religious/spiritual journey here. I tell people now I’m an atheist that practices paganism, because religion is something you do, not something you are.
I think one of the coolest things about human experience is that we all come up with stories that answer the same questions, just slightly differently. It’s because being human leads you to want answers to the same questions regardless of time or space. Why am I here? Why do bad things happen? What comes next?
