Honestly I wish I could find a reason to believe, I want so desperately to believe there is a spiritual element to life and after life

Of course there is. But you won’t find it with post-roman Christianity. Christianity has become a religion that denies the magic found everywhere else in the world, and accepts only one kind, that of their one god.

If you want to see the magic all through the world, you need to speak to the druids, the witches, the hellenists, and the indigenous whose religions survived colonisation. You need to explore the old ways of the world, before monotheism blocked the magic in the world from our sight.

It would be nice if magic in any form is real

It is, and scientists have proved it. The placebo effect. Thoughts made manifest into reality. We have conclusively demonstrated that thanks to the placebo effect, a druid casting an incantation over your injury will cause you to heal faster. Magic is real.

Discussion about Christianity by Christians and those who are curious.

Rule #1. Anti-Christian and anti-Bible statements will not be tolerated. Constructive criticism of Christianity is OK, however.

Rule #1.1. The measure for what is considered Christian, as has been the case in the faith since the earliest days, will be the faith proclaimed in the Nicene Creed.
