I've considered myself Agnostic, for many years and avoided the Bible and other religious texts as much as I could. But recently I've been reading a lot of spirituality stuff, and come to realize that there is a lot of value in such "Sacred" texts. I still find it pretty hard to believe that all the events in the Bible actually took place as written. I still do not know that Moses spoke to God or that Jesus was His son. I do know however that both had good advice that it certainly doesn't heart to learn and consider following. If you have a chance, check out my blog which discusses my spiritual journey. I've been impressed by yours and I'm adding it to my RSS reader. I look forward to hearing what you have to say in the future. Thanks for listening, Tristan Zach,
