[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A friend told me that when her husband's died, it was like beimg awakened from a dream. Reality hits you in the face. It stripped away the religious belief that she was raised in.

She said that God did not prevent her husband from a horrific death. God does not stop bad things from happening to believers or non-believers. Instead, she realized that God and religions are myths made up by people to cope with life.

+1 We were devout Christians growing up and then one day I came home from school and found my father dead. It was an unexpected death, but I found no comfort in God after that. I never felt his "presence". For years I waited and looked for signs that there was a God after my father's death and I never felt one bit of difference. Add to that that my mother spiraled into alcoholism after his passing and I came to the conclusion that there was no God. Nothing up to this point has ever contradicted this assumption and this was over 16 years ago.[/quote]
