    I have two questions:

    • does the fact that you found patterns and filters that limit mean you decided your religious search was over?

    • how long did it take for you to cool off your “search with purpose”?

      My religious search ended gradually as I became atheist over time. The scientific method seemed to be the most reliable way to find out what is true. I began my search in earnest probably in my late teens and really ramped it up in my early 20s and I was atheist by age 36 or 37.

        Well, I have a belief in God. I generally consider atheists “a-thor-ists” aka they do not believe that Thor God of thunder is the master of the universe (and any other definitions you found over the years). I respect the effort you put into searching and I also use the scientific method. Because you aren’t currently searching, I’m not going to advertise. Have good fortune whatever you are doing!
