Interest in Orthodox Christianity

Hello Everyone!

I'll just begine by giving a brief summary about myself. I was born into a predominantely Muslim Palestinian family where we regularly practised our faith from a young age, learnt Quran and attended Islamic School. I was deeply religious throughout my teen years and never saw any issue with my Islamic faith. However, recently I have been drifting away from my faith - I have been having doubts about the Quran and have a lot of disagreemets with the doctrine of Islam especially when it came women. I have also developed an interest in Orthodox Christianity. My interest in this began several years when my family and I travelled to Palestine and visited several Orthodox monasteries. As a result I became intrigued by the worship of Orthodox Christians and wanted to find out more about the faith. It is not until very recently, when I started university, that I have begun to reserach the Orthodox faith especially with the decline of my Islamic faith. I do not personally know anyone who is Orthodox and that is why I have joined this site. I hope to meet members of the Orthodox community in Sydney and get a better grasp of the Orthodox faith.
