You have your curiosity, I have mine, others have theirs. It's perfectly reasonable to have interests, views, experiences, that are not identical to the great mass of humanity. It's part of what makes us who we are, and I think such idiosyncrasies are as much "ordered by our Creator" as are our circumstances.

The problem is, we're trying to have such conversations in the long shadow of one whose curiosity was deemed truth, whilst everyone else's views and/or interests were suppressed, being deemed "opinions" and of Satan. What a soul-warping and spirit-quenching system that was.

Anyway, a considerable portion of the push-back you've gotten is probably a residual from that, a kind of rebound effect, and not at you proper, or your thoughts or experiences. Please keep that in mind.
