Go meditate in the wilderness for a few days, OP.

The best thing I could do to get rid of my religious (American rural south fundamentalist Christianity) was to go out and be alone in nature. I hunt, mountain bike, backpack for a week or so at a time and stuff like that. A big part of my deconversion was realizing that I didn't genuinely feel, intuitively, that someone must have made it all the way so many people claimed to feel, and that without other people in my ear there was so much less to be afraid of in the world. I thought the story about Luther's epiphany in a thunderstorm absurd when I first heard it, because I'd taken hard falls, nearly drowned and been shot at by a poacher and never felt that the presence of mind that saved me was any other but my own.

Badass knights like the guy in your pic were motivated by semi-pagan power structures under the guise of Christianity, not Christianity as put forth in the gospels. If you read the gospel you'll discover that Christianity is basically being a hippie. Then, when you read Paul, you'll get confused because Paul tries to make it more of a hyper-conformist "hide your dirty laundry," type of society (like what we have now in modern protestant communities) because he's a power-hungry neckbeard.

Basically, Christianity belongs in the trash.

You definitely have in school at least once, but it's unlikely they shared the results with you because that's considered bad practice.

I went to a private school, and when I was a senior they showed me my scores from the handful of times I'd been tested over the years. I won't share the score because you'll think I'm lying or bragging but they were quite consistent. I was a national merit scholar

I would estimate it no higher than 110 but you could surprise me up to 115 after which point I wouldn't believe it. The privileged white kids I went to school with averaged 111 and I'd guess they're probably smarter than /lit/.

My ex went to an elite boarding school and their average is in the low 120s.
