[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Raised atheist by a staunchly atheist father (who was himself raised by atheists) and a mother who kept quiet on her beliefs but who returned to religion (trying on many religions) after divorcing. I tried to believe and joined a church youth group at around age 16 but found the kids very judgmental. There’s no way I could believe in anything anyone tells me to just believe in. I feel my moral compass is just fine. The only time I wish I had a religion is when I want to tell someone that I really hope things will get better for them or when someone has passed away -[b] saying you’ll pray for someone doesn’t have a good equivalent[/b].[/quote] Being there for them, lending support and physically helping them (cleaning, arranging meals, caring for their kids) is worth more, imo, than platitudes.[/quote]
