Fate. Complex. Church.
You should never talk about politics or religion at the dinner table, but religion is my favorite topic.
I was born Catholic, but I hated it.
By the age of seven, I knew I wasn't Catholic.
My aunt once told me being Catholic is similar to being Jewish. You're born Catholic and you're Catholic for life. You'll always be Catholic whether you like it or not. Similarly, if you're born Jewish, you'll always be Jewish. You're Jewish for life, like it or not.
When I was 18, I told my mother I was Unitarian and she cried.
In my early twenties, I identified as agnostic or atheist.
In my thirties, I was sort of agnostic, kind of atheist, but I was mostly a scientist.
Religion is complex, but I've always believed in fate and I've never liked going to church.
Today I'm 37 and I finally found God.
More specifically, I found Mr. Steve Harvey's God.
It sounds insane, but I love Steve Harvey, and the way he talks about God is awesome.
His God is friendly, generous, and powerful.
I like Mr. Steve Harvey's God.
He is kind, forgiving, and full of grace.
When God gives you His grace, He forgives you when you don't deserve to be forgiven.
Grace is undeserved forgiveness.
I found God at 37 years old when I asked Steve Harvey's God for grace, and he gave it to me the very next day.
God came through. He came through the next day. He finally showed up. I got proof.
I like to talk about religion with everyone.
Faith is complicated.
People are inherently good, but they're flawed.
Mr. Steve Harvey's God is dope.
Church sucks.
Someone tell my aunt that I'm definitely not Catholic.
