Who are you? What groups do you identify with? And what words do you use to describe yourself? Do you get pissed of when other pin labels on you that you don’t like?

Some fricktard on Youtube has questioned whether I “really knew the Lord.” I most certainly did know the Lord. I knew him just like I knew Santa Clause when I was 5. I believed in Jesus Christ with all my heart, and now I don’t. If you don’t believe me, then you can bite me.
In today’s class we finish our study of Genesis chapter 19, and learn how God is actually pretty cool about this whole incest business.
It’s been a long time since I posted on this blog, or any blog for that matter. I’m sure many of you thought that SpiritfX was dead; decomposing in some dark crypt of an internet server, and never to be heard from again. Well my friends, today is Sunday, but not just any Sunday. For SpiritfX.com, today is Resurrection Sunday!
In the chaos and soul searching that immediately ensued after my realization that Christianity and the Bible was almost certainly fiction, I swung from the extreme position that I was living in (believing in gods, devils, angles, demons, talking snakes and donkeys, undead messiahs, etc.), to the other extreme position of believing in absolutely nothing. The one thing that the two positions have in common is that they are both dogmatic.
I have recently come to a realization of the amazing truth (perhaps the only truth that anyone can honestly ever really know) that I don’t as a matter of fact know how or why I or anyone else is here, in existence. I kind of lean towards the concept of emergence, as in the theory of abiogenesis, but to be perfectly honest; I don’t know. I wasn’t around when the first protocells allegedly emerged in the earth’s primitive oceans, and I’m pretty sure no one else was either. So, for me to without doubt, attest that this is a certain fact, would require a great deal of faith. However, it would require an infinitely greater deal of faith to attest, without doubt, that an all-powerful god did it, who also created the seemingly endless expanse of the cosmos, with his son Jesus Christ, and the holy Ghost. There is just far more stuff to believe without the aid of evidence in the latter scenario.
So, with that said, I am raising SpiritfX.com from the dead, for the express purpose of trying to figure out just what the real world is all about. I will be writing regularly on the subjects of religion, belief, science and reality. I think this time I am finally getting off on the right foot though. A wise man once said: The path to knowledge begins with the simple phrase, “I do not know.” Well, I do not know, but I intend to walk this path until I do, or until I return to dust of the earth.
