I honestly think it does. If you’re like me, then:
* You live and do well in a Christian society, grew up with Christianity and went to church, was baptized etc
* Caught yourself thinking about the Jesus story and have ever let that move your thinking
* Follow it’s major holidays and practice it’s customs because of family
* Genuinely like the Jesus narrative and find him badass
* Have to revert to Christian vernacular and shared concepts on a regular basis
* You believe all real things have a natural scientific explanation
* You see some historical value in the teachings, but couch them as ancient cultural narratives written by humans
Until I started listening to Jordan Peterson I thought this wasn’t enough, but by my old standards he’s an atheist but he’s accepted as a Christian darling. Then I started to consider the whole notion of The Noble Lie and how, throughout history most science was done on behalf of the church. I realized I’m taking a label and living in a margin that only I care about.
