He who controls the past, controls the present, controls the future. Self-prophecy is extremely important whether you believe in a god or not, things that we take as even mere fable have a direct lineage in our actions and are directly manifest if not biologically significant in even the most secular sense.
Don't let doctrines of any kind fool you, and if Christ should call - answer.
It's a strange paradigm shift, but before I was Christian I was an atheist. I was exposed to so many Kent Hovinds, Ray Comforts, and Joel Osteens that I genuinely hated Christianity.
These people follow an afterimage, and often a material centric idol of prosperity, the authentic Christ finds you in strange places that only a skeptical eye and an ecclectic mind can take you.
I know for a fact that I won't convince you, that isn't up to me, nor should it be.
My first mystical experiences hit me like a freight train when I was 27. Seems to be around this age where things of the sort start. I might aswell have been AronRa up to that point (surprised he still makes videos, and I appreciate that he atleast tries to read the material).
Late 20's seems to be where you start reaching into the bottom of the bag and find that there really is no bottom.
I'm going to give you a piece of advice.
