[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you ever wish that you believed in God? Wouldn't it be easier sometimes? Writing off injustice or tragedy as part of God's bigger plan, giving you someone to pray to when you felt the need, etc.?[/quote] Hmm, thoughtful question. I suppose in a way it would be easier, in that I'd have a culturally prescribed way of dealing with negative circumstances. However, I would consider it inauthentic for myself (full disclosure: I used to feel terrible when I was a Christian and had to lie about feeling Jesus's love, saying I'd pray for someone when I started to suspect god didn't exist and it wouldn't do anything, etc). I do think that praying can really benefit some people and that faith can have profoundly positive effects on people's lives.[/quote]
