I grew up non-denominational Christian and I was never atheist but did have that edgy anti-Christian phase in my teenage years. At the moment I’m agnostic

I didn’t mean it in a bad way. I guess I’m just used to interacting with other minors, so seeing an actual parent on here shocks me.

I'm the only one who answered 13 on the "How old are you?" thing.

Which is because I am a 13 year old-

Why did I think you were like 16-17?

Anyways I’m 15

Lol I'm old as dirt. I was raised Catholic, then became a "satanist" (goth phase), and am now an existential deist.

I think my atheist phase was as a result of coming from a religious education, suddenly being exposed to other viewpoints, and over compensating in a way.

Studying Physics, and in particular learning how little we do actually know about the universe, is what made me realise I was being similarly dogmatic in my thinking and slowly become more open and agnostic.

I was raised Roman Catholic and even got to Confirmation, but that was more of obligation rather than true belief. I didn't think God wasn't real while at Catechism, but it was just a gray area in my mind. I fully respect people who are religious just as I respect those without faith, and I don't argue with others on such a topic because I don't have a stance on it myself.

For a moment there i read that as an "existential dentist". An engaging philosophical discussion instead of "going anywhere nice on holiday this year" as they hack away at your teeth.

**Prosperous Kixkean Economy Thrives Under State Model**

The prosperous economy of Kixkean, valued at 199 trillion Raials per year, is a notable example of success driven by government and state industry. With private initiative prohibited, the country has found its way to growth through a combination of specialized industrial sectors.

The Information Technology industry leads the economic landscape, closely followed by the sectors of Basket Weaving, Retail, and Furniture Restoration. This diversification ensures a solid foundation for sustainable growth and economic stability in the country.

The impressive average income, standing at 89,093 Raials, is distributed extremely evenly, reflecting a commitment to economic equality. This equitable distribution of wealth minimizes disparities between the wealthiest and the most disadvantaged citizens, creating a more cohesive and resilient society.

Know the truth people, the earth is not round. It is shaped like a velociraptor, the flat earthers are cia plants to distract us from what is right in front of us! It's so obvious!

I truly am very smart.

Hello everyone I am United Democratic Christian States aka the JEFF founder and as per my post N day announcement I said I would engage on the RMB of each JEFF region to try and directly speak with the JEFF members as especially on this N day, there are a lot of you I have never spoken to. So I have created this list of questions to both help me get a better understanding of all of you as well as allow you to engage with and get to know me. You may also choose to answer anonymously by TGing me on my main instead, as I will likely not respond on this account. Without further ado, let's get into it.

Also please don’t reply unless you participated in JEFF, thank you.

  1. How would you rate your most recent N day experience out of 10? Did you like anything about JEFF? Dislike? And how did it compare to your experiences with a different faction (if you were in a different faction previously)

  2. Did you agree or disagree with allowing GCRs and major UCRs into JEFF, breaking our historical trend of mid-sized UCRs? Why?

  3. What did you think about our alliance with Anime Nations Against Liberals and Starlight Brigade?

  4. Do you think we should have attacked Anime Nations Against Liberals at any point? If so, when? (For context on what I assume the most likely answer is, post KHAN we were both smaller and already 30% radiated. Compared to I think Anime Nations suffering 6% radiation)

  5. Are there any faction changes you recommend for next N day or the World Trade Fair?

  6. Would you like to join JEFF again in the future?

  7. Finally is there any other comments you’d like to add, questions you’d like to ask of me or fears you’d like addressed?

Daily geography fact: The Stan borders are very complicated, here's how.

There are 2 Tajikistan enclaves in Kyrgyzstan.

There are 2 Kazakhstan enclaves in Uzbekistan.

There is 1 Tajikistan enclave in Uzbekistan.

There are 2 Kyrgyzstan enclaves in Uzbekistan.

There is 1 Russia enclave in Kazakhstan.

There are 123 India enclaves in Pakistan.

There are 74 Pakistan enclaves in India.

I may have missed some, but I believe that's all...hopefully.

To sum up: I just finished reading a Hindu scripture verse to my daughter who just came back from Hebrew school at the local Chabad.

I believe that all religions can offer a beautiful narrative into humanity. I am very much an igtheistic humanist but with a deep appreciation for tradition, history, cultures, and mythology. Though not officially seen as a religion, being vegan and a parent probably influences my worldview and love for life more than any religion that I have ever experienced.

That's quite the impressive journey! I was raised Christian but it never felt right to me, I shifted about a bit and then settled on Norse Paganism, for no reason other than I felt a genuine connection to it after researching it a tad. It's spiritually satisfying and feels right, so I stuck with it.

I was raised heathen, still am, will continue to be
