Esthersvirtue, I think I know how you feel. Have you read any of C.S. Lewis, especially The Great Divorce? He is very "common sense" and doesn't "spout" stuff.

I found some comfort figuring out just what I do believe and knowing even though it doesn't "match" others' beliefs that it's "mine" and good enough for me. It's sad to suddenly see you don't believe what you use to or what other friends and people you knew/meet do but eventually, moving forward with what you do believe you meet new friends more like you.
