My disaffection has a lot of facets, but the unreliability of "personal revelation" is a pretty large one. To be honest, I would actually love to talk to you about it. I wish I could teleport to where you are and have a friendly discussion over coffee and hot chocolate or whatever :). I enjoy the topic, and especially enjoy discussing it with thoughtful believers like yourself. The willingness to discuss these things is extremely asymmetric in my experience, and only a small handful of people have ever expressed interest.
That being said, it's a pretty involved discussion, and I agree that a Hacker News thread is an odd place for it, though a rare thread like this is the closest it ever gets.
If y'all are taking this offline, may I join, at least to read? (Not sure if I'll have input or not, really just looking to learn) Reply with forum/ contact if you don't mind.
