As an ex catholic, there’s a lot of hiding behind the veil of time.i haven’t read a lot of apologia and learned catechism when I was 15. Shits vague and blurry to me now, but I remember a feeling that the answers were long winded and not satisfactory. I should read Aquinas and some modern apologia, but epicurus’ paradox really sums up the beginning of my journey into looking into all the bullshit.

On the switch from literal to metaphor interpretation of the Bible, I think science has penetrated deep enough into nature that is just foolish to keep fighting it. The drought/ flood isn’t because God is punishing you for not believing/ praying enough. Here’s models and data, worlds on fire and getting worse.
