Hey, so I believe in a higher power but I'm not on board with any particular religion. Anyone else think it's cool to just fly solo as a good human, no religion attached?

Man, that's some deep stuff you're sharing. The whole 'tiny part of something huge' vibe really puts things in a new light, doesn't it? Kinda like realizing you're just one pixel in a giant picture.

Reading about your journey away from Mormonism and your take on organized religion is super interesting. It's wild to think how one person's ideas can snowball into something that affects so many. And your point about the Abrahamic Covenant? it's really a mind-bender!

Totally agree on the whole making-your-own-path thing. It's awesome to bump into others carving out their own routes too. It's like a big, messy, beautiful DIY project where everyone's figuring it out as they go along.
