Good stuff Michiel. Much of what you say here resonates, and I have come to many of the same conclusions, by way of a different route. "Letting it out" in person of course has it's downsides, but the degree of anonymity of an internet social platform eliminates a lot of those problems. I've been enjoying writing, blogging, debating, etc. on FB and Theologyonline for years, partly because it allows me to be me in a way not always appreciated in meatspace . And I think that's a pretty good thing :) I'm glad you're encouraging writers to step out, and I hope the ones who really have something to contribute do so because quite frankly, this platform is being flooded with "words" by people trying to make a quick buck.
I know, the run for the money.... luckily there are a lot of open hearted ppl here as well! Great you are finding your way here! I’m not religious, except Love is my religion ♥️ but I respect all views regarding the Creator 🙂 I feel we are Creators in many ways.
Ya I hope the open hearted ones don't get drowned out in the sheer volume of, ummm, stuff. If I get time I'm going to post something about why this platform isn't sustainable unless they hurry up and make some changes. It could easily become a victim of its own success. BTW, I'm not religious either (though many would dispute that), in fact, I do a lot to help people out of "religion". And yes, we are all creators in some way. We wouldn't be human if it were not so.
