I have been informed that Erwin has stated that I cannot be a concilliator, period, full stop. Feel free to ask about it. I suspect this is more of the CF obsession with my sex life, but I really don't know.

I could have gone to sleep just fine without knowing they pull stuff like that.

Now, I'll probably lie awake in a state of sadness for awhile.

Eh, it's cool. I'd rather have the pet than the job.

Seebs, I've now spent the weekend in my archives from around the time of my deconversion thanks to your thread

I think it's something I needed to do. I believed my motives pure, but always feared (still do fear, to some degree) that I had given in too easily, could have done more to keep my faith, and thus that I had and have been failing my God. Reading and recalling my thoughts at the time is so far very good for me, even with the painful memories mixed in. I was inspired to mention this because I ran across something I wrote about a week after I finally deconverted, which reminded me of a recent topic of discussion we all had in one of these threads:
"If the light of God appears as darkness to me, aren't I in some way turning towards his light by rejecting it? It may be a twisted way of viewing things, but it seems like in rejecting God, I'm actually trying to follow all that he supposedly holds up as good and true."

It's going a long way towards restoring my confidence that I really did try.

I should really just go hire a therapist to bitch to about the entire episode and spare everyone else

You may be right.

But it's still pretty pathetic. I just don't understand the obsession some people have with what happens in foreign bedrooms.
