>>58348389I understand that point of view, I read a lot of nietzsche and schopenhaur when I was teenager. But I find eastern orthodoxy quite compelling since Seraphim Rose became a saint (in a diocese at least) despite once being a gay man and St Moses the Black became a saint despite once being a criminal. I've just survived so many drunk/drugged up adventures that I'm convinced some higher power must want me to be here on earth, after all my parents were both pretty advanced in age when they got married, my mom told me I was finally born after 7 years of trying when she was down to her last egg and she went to the church and was anointed with oil and the whole congregation prayed over her, I was finally conceived
