I have had other people tell me im "gnostic" when I explained to them my views on religion, but I wouldnt say I am a strict follower of whatever it may be about.

I was sent to a Christian Sunday school as a kid and went through confirmation as a teen, but I always saw (and was taught) more so that the teachings of the faith are just basic, sensible concepts to not being a shit person to others. I think in that respect, I appreciate what I was taught at a young age.

As far as what I actually believe in "creation myth", I like reading about different religions and their backgrounds, but I personally think there is no definitive answer to existence. I do think there is a "God", and I find it extremely hard to no accept the idea that one exists. However, I dont strictly think "God" is a sentient force(maybe it is), but rather a name for whatever force began the universe/reality. Rather then a specific "thing", I see it more as being open to the idea that there is a force beyond all mysticism, beyond all science and understanding, that existence was born from, and we as mortal beings, will never be able to comprehend the nature of what this force is and the nature of it, be it sentient or not. Its simply a concept that no level of science could possibly begin to ever give a final answer on, because its impossible for beings within "reality" to ever truly understand the nature of what exists beyond it. If I had to make up my own head-canon answer, I think "God" is something more along the lines of something equivalent to single-cell organisms on an incomprehensible scale to us, that caused a chemical reaction like event that began reality. Something like that could be either completely non-sentient, or on a level of intelligence that is completely alien to our understanding of the concept, while still being very basic in its function.

Basically, I just try and be a good person and I accept the idea that we will never understand the true nature of existence
