Losing My Religion

by 123pizza on November 5, 2009

This chorus has been going through my head for several days. I think the song is about him losing his mind, whether I am correct or not, I feel like this at times.

I mentioned in my last post that I didn’t think I could call myself a Christian anymore. That statement needs to have more clarification and I’m not sure I can do that at this time. I do know that I do not consider myself as your typical evangelical, right-wing conservative Christian. I’m more into looking at what Jesus said and doing it.

My problem is… do I really believe Jesus is the son of God who died for me and then rose again from the grave. Do I really believe that? At one time I did. Now, I’m not so sure. Hubby and I were talking about this and we are on a quest to read other historical documents to see what they say about Jesus. Also, I am going to read my bible to see what it really says. To read it as a historical document and not having any past teachings influence my research.

Basically, I want to go to the beginning, I want to look at the history, I want to make my own decision and not rely on what others are telling me what I should believe. I’m not exactly sure where to start but then again that’s part of the fun.

If you’re curious, losing your religion is a slang southern term for losing your temper. I always wondered what it meant. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Losing_religion
