>on your religious journey
I was never on a "religious journey", I was just seeking for the truth wherever it led me regardless of how offended this world is by it. And it led me to a person named Jesus Christ and the infallible, inerrant, inspired Word of the living God. Anyone who's a truth seeker, or a lover of truth, will end up at the same place; but most people love to believe lies so they're not going to believe the truth.

The seeking of truth is a religious journey. Which book influenced you the most? The Bible?

No book influenced me to love the truth and seek for the truth at all costs though. I suppose after I found the truth, the Bible would be the most influential.

Forgotten truth by Huston smith. To me it concisely and clearly lays out the most important and broadest points about what religion of really about.

Reading Divine Comedy now. In English, though. I’ve often wondered how much different the original Italian was.

This is true. Truth, real truth, always leads back to Jesus Christ.

I hate how religious experience has become conflated with getting your consciousness one shotted by psychedelic drugs. No experience is special that you can take a shortcut to.
