>>643610I was raised with irreligious parents, I went through my mandatory fedora stage in highschool.
Over the past few years my ways of thinking on the topic have changed significantly, perhaps in parallel to my politics.
I think a 'spiritual' component to life is more or less essential to happiness unless you're able to completely ignore the shit aspects of existence. That said, the word 'spiritual' has been ruined by sandal-wearers and granola eaters.
I'm not very good at convincing myself to believe in things, or to ignore others. Being European pretty much limits my options to Christianity (which I don't think I could pull off) or LARPy pagan things (which have also been ruined).
It's a bit difficult.
