Thank you, Nie, Red, and Dom. I like to think it is.
Regrettably, Dom, I refuse to answer any personal questions relating to my identity. It's nothing against you personally, but I'd rather remain anonymous. At least for the time being.
Well that is quite alright. Most of us give away our information eventually, but no one will hold your privacy against you.
As for my religious/philosophical standing, I'm currently conflicted. I used to be Christian, but my understanding of religion as a whole has evolved to the point that I no longer identify as one. I support too many things that others view as sinful, and because of this, my mother and I were greatly discouraged from showing up at our church. Since then I've been intrigued by tools like tarot cards and I enjoy learning about the different properties of crystals, in addition to ideas like sacred geometry and other "secrets of the universe". Right now I'm searching for what's right for me.
That sentence makes me think of what I am discussing with Sorrel about the objectivity of truth.
I do enjoy debating. I've had people recommend me to join a debate club in the past, but the thing that holds me back most is how aggressive people become when they're defending something. I'm a bit of a paradox in those regards, in all honesty. I enjoy discussing the different sides of things, but I despise conflict. It mostly depends on how the participants handle themselves, which ties into what Sorrel asked me at the beginning of this thread, about undesirable traits in people.
I understand completely. I find it quite frustrating how emotion people can get. But I have to remind myself that they can't help it.
