5. have you tried or ivestigated any non-abrahamic religions, which have their own genesis stories?

thanks for your time.
1 Have had religion all my life more or less. Exact date not certain but definitely as a child and have always had it by my recollection.
Lost interest in it as I got older didn't stop believing just lost a bit of interest and then I came back to it because I chose to

2 Parts of the scriptures I feel are concerning or disagree with??
Remembering I don't choose the contents of the scriptures I have to with my beliefs embrace them. It isn't really for me to actually pick and choose which parts of the Good Book I should.
The book isn't really there for me to go I like that so will go with it but would rather do this that way etc

3 To include the story of Jesus they would have of course have to be written after his death.
I agree the time after can see tales of embellishment errors etc. with the Chinese Whispers principle.
The issue with it being written by man also sees the potential for error as man is flawed
Does it concern me. NO NOT AT ALL.

It may not be perfect that doesn't matter. The principle and reason for it is right

4 The word Conon is ****ing your sentence up as I have no idea what it means I will pass on the question until I understand what exactly you are asking

5 Trying other religions No. I though am interested in learning about other religions. I am going to Thailand soon and will be hoping to get a greater understanding of Buddhism whilst there

Thanks
