I want to start off by saying that I don't believe in god, but I'm not against belief or Christianity. I was a Christian for most of my life, and it wasn't until about a year or two ago that I stopped believing. Since then, I've been very uncomfortable when someone discovers that I have no religion. It's as if they can't trust me anymore, but I haven't changed as a person or anything. I still have the same morals as most Christians, I just don't believe in god. I joined this forum because I need help and support. I don't know how to tell my Christian friends that I don't share their faith without them getting angry at me or thinking that I'm suddenly a bad person. I also want to come to understand more about what being a Christian means to different people. I know everyone has a different experience with god, and I want to understand. I hope that I can learn a lot from you guys and I'm looking forward to this experience. :)

:wave: Welcome to CF .com It's sad to hear that you thought you once believed and now you don't... hope you find what you need here.

I don't think it's sad, not really. I'm typically a happy person. I think that spiritual truth is a different experience for everyone, since people are naturally different. It's just hard for me to fit in, and I don't really know if a nonbeliever on a Christian page is going to help, but I just want Christians to know that just because I don't believe, I'm not against you. I'm against people using their religion to hurt others. If you're good, I'm on your side. Atheists get a lot of negative views because of militant people who make fun of the religious, and I just want people to know that not all of us are like that. I'm happy, I enjoy life, and I love helping people and putting smiles on others' faces. :)
