I am an avid Christian; AMA

I've considered posting this for a while now. I am now because... well why not? I'm bored and wanna see what you can come up with. Let me first start off by saying that I'm not gonna waste any time replying to foolish, immature, or spam. If the fact that I am a Christian upsets you to the point where you have some hurtful words to say, please do it in a private message. Otherwise, I will look at it as a selfish way of trying to garnish attention to yourself. I have been raised in a Christian household my entire life. Now when I say that, I don't mean I was in church every Sunday or prayed before every meal or before I went to sleep at night. I was saved in my early teens along with some of my closest friends that I attended church with. I then drifted away from my faith as high school and college rolled around. Over the past year or so, I've rediscovered my faith and redefined myself as a man. I've been to church, reading my bible, participating in bible studies, youth groups and events, as well serving at my church running the sound board and helping out wherever I can. I'm comfortable enough with my faith to be asked questions, to be persecuted, and to be doubted and called foolish. Then again, it doesn't seem to matter what you believe in, we all face these things. I don't have all the answers but I'm curious to see what you've got for me and I'll do my best to answer whatever it is you can conjure up for me.

    I was raised in a Christian household and was active in my faith for many years, but as I grew older I began to reason with myself. How can we prove a God exists? How can we prove one doesn't? And since there is no definitive answer to either side, I am now agnostic. I won't condemn anyone for believing or disbelieving in a higher power, but I like to believe that I believe in myself and that I wouldn't need help from some higher being to achieve my dreams and goals. EDIT 1: and just because you're raised a certain way doesn't mean you have to live that way... You can be raised an atheist and still find a god if you truly feel a connection. I believe everyone has the right to live the life they please without being judged or shunned.
