Is there anyone here who is disillusioned or has left the Christian church

I believe in evidence, the stronger the better. Anything that has magic involved I have zero tolerance.

“[R]eligion was the race's first (and worst) attempt to make sense of reality. It was the best the species could do at a time when we had no concept of physics, chemistry, biology or medicine. We did not know that we lived on a round planet, let alone that the said planet was in orbit in a minor and obscure solar system, which was also on the edge of an unimaginably vast cosmos that was exploding away from its original source of energy. We did not know that micro-organisms were so powerful and lived in our digestive systems in order to enable us to live, as well as mounting lethal attacks on us as parasites. We did not know of our close kinship with other animals. We believed that sprites, imps, demons, and djinns were hovering in the air about us. We imagined that thunder and lightning were portentous. It has taken us a long time to shrug off this heavy coat of ignorance and fear, and every time we do there are self-interested forces who want to compel us to put it back on again.”
― Christopher Hitchens, The Portable Atheist: Essential Readings for the Nonbeliever

i grew up with religious parents and as i grew up i started to see how toxic the religion was as well as what the church does and i couldn't be a part of it any more. leaving the religion also meant cutting off ties with my mom but i was lucky. i had my close friend now BF of 10 years. to support me and help me through it all.

i'd suggest turning to the love and compassion of others who love you in return. do what you believe is right and decide your morals for yourself instead of looking for some belief system to give them to you. you don't need a religion to be a fulfilled, kind and compassionate person

Disagreement with God does not make God then non-existent.. A central part of following God is to trust in His teachings and not in your own opinion.. Otherwise you will simply go search for a religion that conforms to what you think a religion should conform to and in doing so You will just be making yourself your own god.. And that is the way of death.. The second death..

Proverbs 14: {12} There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death."

Similar does not make them all correct.. The art of deception is to wrap a lie up in 1000 truths to deceive someone and lead them to destruction..

Without Faith no one can please the LORD..

Check out the writings of spinoza.

Left as soon as I could

Raised catholic ... so much struck me as hypocrisy in plain site and yet people still follow God, Jesus.
But why can we not show and help each other. Instead we just want make money from each other, most importantly.

nope, i stay loyal to my faith.

There were other messengers and plenty of them. But Jesus was a lot more than just a messenger
