I have a bachelor's in social work and philosophy. I counsel people about end if life matters routinely, I studied theology in college, I even took a survey of catholic history class that was probably the most intense of all my classes that actually discussed the real formation of christianity not the platitudes the pastors know superficially.
I dunno dude. I can talk intelligently about the philosophy of Thomas Aquinas doctor of the church, Augustine of Hippo, through Martin buber I am familiar with an older bible than the king James recreation, speak on the christian existentialism of Paul tillich and soren kierkegaard. Anselms ontological argument. Diedrich bonhoeffer. None of these ring a bell to you.
I know a bit about formal theology dude, more than the average person who just adopted their regional religion as socialization.
and you mentioned nothing about scripture.
"...more than the average person who just adopted their regional religion as socialization."
(and that is what is known as the genetic fallacy. pretty sloppy for one with just soooooooo much education.)
