Apollo Robbins said he was raised religious but became an agnostic, and I was raised agnostic but became an atheist. And now I'm wondering how this is with other people

THE BEGINNING OF THE WORLD - romanian edition
Tumblr media
There can be no religion without culture and no culture without religion
(that being said, all cultures around the world have their own myth of creation, pre-christian or any abrahamic religion that has spreaded around the globe)
Our myth speaks of a primordial sea... or, rather a primordial ocean, seeing how big it was. In the darkness of the universe, two beings (twin brothers, most oftenly regarded) watched this sea of nothingness and became inspired.
It's worth to mention these beings names: FÂRTATUL and NEFÂRTATUL (yes, if this second one seems.familiar, it is because after christianity was adopted in the region, it became a nickname for the devil, as it was bad to call the fallen angel by any of his given names: devil or lucifer). But mistake not the paganism, so vague in its lines between good and evil that these notions barely existed as well shaped concepts, with its predecesor. None of the twins is supposed to be seen as purely good or purely evil in romanian mythos.
Fârtatul asked the primordial frog, the first animal he encountered in the vast sea, to swim to its bottom and pluck out some mâl (wet sand). Hence, the land came to be.
But there was just a plain terrain, dry and unlivable. So Fârtatul talked with the primordial hedgehog, the first creature to roam the newly made earth. And it became to walk around, digging with its small paws and claws until water sparked to the surface: rivers, lakes, seas and such on. Where the land creaked under the pressure, valleys formed and the puddle of earth the hedgehog threw behind in its search for water became mountins.
However, the twin brother, Nefârtatul, mumbled about the darkness around (for he kept bumping into things in this new world and couldn't see a thing). Therefore, he made the Sun and the Moon, and so the day and night appeared, lighted more or less by their patron own.
Yet, something still was missing. And both Fârtatul and Nefârtatul tried to fill the gap they felt existed. Each made creatures they soon deemed imperfect. First were the giant CĂPCÂNI (later known in our fairytales as căpcăuni). These were humanoid beings, tall enough to catch their feet into the mountains and fumble to the ground. They had half of a human face and half the one of a dog and they were bad for they were violent and mean.
So the brothers raced again with each other and created the BLAJINI. Cute, sweet, dwarves, as the name enables (blajin in romanian means kind, nice). But they couldn't fetch for themselves and the primordial twins took them into their own realm.
Next came the beings with multiple arms, and even later, the halves/halves (half human, half other animals). Until humans were created.
Legends say both Fârtatul and Nefârtatul created humans at the same time. To be like them in all aspects. Therefore some humans are more like Fârtatul and some, like Nefârtatul (remember, there is no good vs. evil concept here).

I feel like you can either respect God/gods a lot, or totally shit talk them. There's no in-between.

“Life cannot be repaired, it can only be recreated through symbolic repetition of the cosmogony, for the cosmogony is the paradigmatic model for all creation”.

People don't understand that it's not really about religion,
It's about God.
Alot of things that has been done by the so called christians don't glorify God, giving rise to atheist.
More so for Catholics,
You want people to be converted, yet you talk about non believers like they are full of sin.
Yes they are and so are you.
For all to understand, the church is and always will be full of sinners and hypocrites just like the hospital is full of sick people
We are there not because we are holy but because our nature is spiritually unhealthy
You get angry when people don't understand your religion,
When atheists paint God black,
But think about if we weren't born into the religion, we'll also have a hard time believing.
Alot of people have had bad times that made them unable to believe in God anymore
But you who believe should also understand that people will only recognize God through your own relationship with Him.
If a priest does bad things, people being humans must critize Him, God and the religion
But if Christians put in more effort in their relationship with God,
The atheist not through the gospel, nor words of the mouth but through the evidence of The glorious works of God in your life will have a change of heart.
For the atheist, not matter how hard you don't believe in the existence of God,
Your believe cannot change the fact that He exist.
Christians, Keep up the good work of praying for everyone but also remember the thief who died with Christ was not baptized, but still made it to heaven beacause he believed that Jesus is the son of God.
