Following this idea I suggested Ni.
But maybe I was just misreading, and the fact that you voice your spiritual beliefs proves that you don't value them -socionically-, so that your Fi is probably tied to the doctrine with its moral values, more than to faith in itself, and probably Fi is creating a filter to protect you and from outside only a little part comes out , which is Ne, so much Ne that it looks like Ni (strong functions reinforce each E/I), as demonstra(-ted)tive. Makes sense? I can see that... it's all twisty, but it's probably how introverts work: they appear one way but hide another nature... resembling the J/P switch of MBTI, that ultimately can work both ways.
I even think that, aside of socionics, what attracts us and what repulses us are often the same thing, it's often the context that creates the difference. This difference ultimately responds to our energy, charged positively or negatively depending on... context. So we're not always one thing, we switch on and off like AC/DC, twisting on ourselves.
It reminds me of this quote from Umberto Eco "we are always born under the wrong sign and to be alive with dignity means to correct our birth horoscope every day".
