Many people have left behind religion. It can actually be a transition to a much freer life if you allow it to be. Christianty and many other religions/cults are means of controlling people by instilling dysfunctional beliefs into people. The corruption that rots within these organizations are tell tale signs of their lack of harmony within.
A mistake that some make though is jumping from a kettle to a pan. In other words they replace one set of dogmatic beleifs for another out of the need to complete themselves from without themselves. Spirituality is personal and is an inside job. You do not need anything outside to act as a template to conform to. It is this conforming that restricts you and literally kills your freedom to create a fulfilling life. One does not need a governor on their conscious creating.
BTW the irony that you are experimenting with things like mushrooms comes into play because there is much proof that the early forms of christianity were actually based on psychedelic mysticism. If you take a look around the Vatican it is chalk full of mushroomesque statues and art. Take a look at the popes hat ;-)
Anyway it never hurts to read to get ideas but ultimately its your own inner journey and if you see it as yours then nothing outside will force you into another mold.
My spirituality is mine. Consciousness is based on infinite potential which allows all kinds of information and belief systems to be formed out of that. One is not more "true" than any other. They are all just different "clothes" to try on and experience life through. So then you can have someone dress you up or you can choose what you want to wear. ;-)
It may be difficult at first living in a new way where you decide what is right for you after coming from a conditioned view point where these beliefs have been implanted deep in your psyche. When we told we are sinners and need to be saved etc it fractures our psyche and this can take time to heal.
So what I would say is read and experience lots of ideas but ultimately create your won belief system that brings you peace within you. Don't live to please anyone else, especially a society that is dysfunctional at best.
My belief is that "god" is everything and that there is no separation. God is not an "entity" but is literally everything. There is no one to measure up to, no prize at the end of the game, no separation. There is this moment and the experience flowing out of that.
Some interesting reading...
Conversations with God
The 4`Agreements
Watch out for any work that has separation disguised with in such as A course in Miracles (written by 2 CIA intelligence agents as a mind control experiment).
For now releasing all old beliefs can lead to freedom, peace and clarity. There are many ways to do this. One way I like and that has worked for many is called The Sedona Method.
Welcome back from the cult of christianity. Many here have left it so you will get lots of support. Just be aware that there are also a lot of angry wasps still within the cult that float around here trying to sting people back into the cult. ;-) It will be obvious to you as they attack everyone and anything that isn't part of their limited belief system. By their fruits...;-)
