I think you are a very smart, very nice person. But let me ask you something. Before you decided to dump the Church, did you spend any time reading Augustine or Aquinas or John Henry Newman or GK Chesterton? Did you seek out the counsel of a spiritual advisor, to see what he or she might offer? Did you ask yourself if some other religion might suit you better, and, say, read DT Suzuki or Alan Watts on Zen Buddhism? Have you ever read the Bhagavad Gita? The Quran? Have you read William James's book "The Varieties of Religious Experience"? Any Jung? Any Buber? Can you name a couple of significant differences between Roman Catholics and Lutherans? This is the kind of curiosity I am talking about, the kind that actively seeks information that might aid in understanding or making up one's mind on crucial matters. If you have done any considerable portion of the above, you are exceptional, and I am impressed......
