I recently partook of a retweet chain, with the simple premise of "My religious beliefs in 2016 vs now". I get the impression 2016 was chosen instead of "5 years ago" or "10 years ago" because that was a pivotal point in contemporary culture. Many people were radicalized that year, mostly in terms of politics, but also on the religious plane (for sincere motives or otherwise). That being said, I had to really think about what I believed at the time. In light of that, I've decided to take a step back and examine my religious journey up to now.
