[QUOTE="Emperor Constantine, post: 1306231, member: 16623"] Yeah, thanks for pointing that out. I don't mean to suggest that truth is unnecessary; what I mean is: - someone who is not a practicing Christian is hardly in a good place to figure out the details of the truth, - Once you've found the truth endless learning is not necessarily helpful. My perspective might be skewed: I spent about three years obsessively reading about theology before I joined the Church, the latter two of which I had already started to believe. I definitely think this was not the correct approach; it is extraordinary that by God's grace I ended up choosing the Orthodox Church, because I lacked the wisdom and moral foundation for good decision-making.
