2025-01-02 23:56:49For the longest time I was a strict and rather arrogant atheist and often went so far as too consider myself more an anti-theist. I grew up in a highly catholic environment and since I tend to do the opposite of what people expect of me, I went the exact opposite direction, discovered Metal which lead straight to Black Metal and I became totally anti-christian. Though most of the Christians I encountered where either my age or had such a shallow understanding of their scripture, that even I knew perfectly well that they had no idea what they were saying most of the time.
I’ve since done away with all of that childish nonsense (except the music, of course), after a trip on shrooms led me down more rabbit holes then I could imagine. Throughout my research I discovered Jung and it dawned on me, how much of my life was steered by synchronicities without even knowing what that was. Coming to terms with having been his ignorant when it comes to spirituality has been a humbling experience and my shadow work is far from complete.
I just find it kinda ironic how it's now mostly Christians that seem sane and consistent in their behaviour in these bizarre times and I notice that I feel comfortable being surrounded by them, especially here on Nostr.
