- I have some personal stuff I need to solve, this account dropped heavily in the lit of my priorities
- I no longer see much sense in doing that, I don’t see this account makes any difference
- since the pandemic because of the magical attitude of most of the hierarchy towards it and un-Christian attitude towards the Russian invasion on Ukraine I basically became an agnostic. I don’t think I need to use my other hand to count the times I’ve been to church in the last three years. it’s dishonest to run such a page having almost left the religion it is about (despite the fact it still interest me)
I guess, since I’ve been doing it for almost 10 years I owe you some explanations. So the reasons are, in no particular order:
- it takes me around 45 min daily (except weekends) to check all my sources, that takes too much unpaid time I could spend on my personal stuff
- running it does not exactly rises my mood or benefits my psychical health, quite the contrary
Due to a variety of reasons this account is discontinued.
