Welcome to RF. I want to point out that the "Christian manners" you mention aren't that unique, but more universal.

That was quite an introduction....so good to be up front right from the beginning. You seem like a very nice person.

I hope you find your feet spiritually. I personally hate the whole shaming people into Christianity thing myself. Threatening "hell" is something that only instills fear not love. Jesus never did that. He offered people his message and allowed them to make up their own minds about things. Our relationship with God is personal. We can hear people out...take their input on board, but ultimately we can make our own decisions about what we will believe.

Nothing wrong with loving mother earth either....nature is after all God's creation and his gift to us I believe.
And animals can read a lot more about us than just how we smell.

Dogs are companion animals so I think they pick up on our moods and feelings as well.

As for your 'talents'....its a difficult thing to pin down actually. My grandmother was able to tune into people too. Sometimes I think intuition is perhaps a gift we have lost, especially us women. I am tuned in to my kids. I will think of them and the next thing the phone rings. When my husband was very ill in hospital, we had been told to go home and rest, but early the next morning my daughter rang me and said she had to be with her Dad. I met her at the hospital and we walked into his room together and held his hand as he took his last breaths. How can anyone put a label on these things?

I know that God has power but I know the devil does too and he is a deceiver.....we have to figure out where the line is I guess. Some people are just more tuned in than others. We just have to be careful that the devil doesn't try to take advantage of us.

I hope you enjoy your time here.

There are different types of Christianity and Christians of course. Some are not as judging as the Christians you are familiar with. For example in my country there are female priests, and bishop and there was a transsexual priest. Of course there are some who are like the ones you describe.

Regarding those dream talents, have you read about lucid dreaming? Sometimes dreams can bring out something from our unconscious, there's a common saying where I'm from that when there's a problem, sleep over it. In the morning you might have the solution and a clear mind from the worries of evening. It's letting your mind do it's work freely.

Welcome, you seem very caring and sweet! I appreciate your candid and open post.

Hope we can talk more, later. Sounds like you have a great, understanding husband...that's fantastic!

Your "weird" side is, I think, something that all humans possess to one degree or another. Unfortunately, those who possess such abilities to a greater degree than most are often made to feel as if they are somehow doing something evil by those who are not as, shall we say, gifted in this regard.

Your "calming energy" sounds very much like a sort of Reiki, which is a healing technique wherein the practitioner channels their energy into a patient in order to promote healing. Animals seem to be very receptive to this sort of energy work, and there are those who have learned to harness their healing energy to a great degree in order to help others. I've been able to do a bit of this myself, although nowhere near as strongly as you seem to be able to do it.

It's just there and it's not evil or weird...it's something very special.
