That is an interesting quote, it's a little confusing to me. I just know that I allow myself to be whatever faith I feel like I am when I wake up in the morning. If I am feeling agnostic, then for that day I'm agnostic. Some days I'm scientifically atheist. Some days I feel sort of pagan, some days I feel new age, others I'm very Taoist. I was Buddhist for a while. Some days I feel a little Baptist, which is the faith I grew up in. I know lately I've been thinking and leaning on a quote from the bible that goes "Trust in the lord with all thy heart, lean not unto thine own understanding." I don't 'ban' myself from taking a little bit from each faith. I think this works for me. When I first got into recovery I thought I had to 'pick a lane' so to speak, and I really don't, and that's a relief.
