This is going to be brief:
I grew up in church, all my friends went to church blah blah blah... The usual...
After becoming disillusioned with American Christian culture, I began to see things slightly differently.
Imaging 2 people, a truly devout Mormon and a truly devout christian. Both are very sincere, committed, love their familys, don't cheat on their spouses... blah blah...
Cut open their heads, and they're brains are exactly the same. How do you know you're not the mormon or the christian. You can't. It doesn't matter what is true, because neither of them know, nor does their belief having any bearing.
We ultimatly can't know truth because we see things with filters. We can choose to live life with one filter, christianity or mormonism, or we can choose to think about things as unfiltered as possible (which in itself is a filter). Thus we can't know anything.
That sux.
But If you look at things as if Christianity can be all false, and realize that God's plan can't just be focused on white conservitive people in America.
