Atheistic agnostic
I believe there is a higher power of some sort, but not one all powerful deity. I grew up Christian, but as I read the Bible myself I realized that it was basically fairy tales with absolutely no historical proof, besides some scrolls that are 3rd hand info.
One of my biggest questions about the Bible and Christianity, if Jesus went to the mountain to pray to god about what to do alone, then how do we know what was said/or revealed to him without being 2nd or 3rd hand info? Another question to ask, how do we know god is/was real? If he was don’t you think some prayers would be answered
