Re: Crisis of faith-iness

Lots of people have a sort of generalized belief in the spiritual or a belief a god of some kind without subscribing to a specific religion. Even most people who identify as "Christians" don't always nail it down to one specific sect or even a physical church.

My problem with feeling like god or some spiritual force has intervened to save me from disaster is that it feels sort of... well... arrogant. Because when you think of all the people who have horrible things happen to them and nobody saved them from anything, why am I deserving and they aren't? The answer is that I'm NOT more deserving to live. I cannot imagine venerating a deity who had the power to save innocent lives but chooses not to, and that's the belief I'd have to uphold if I sincerely believed in guardian angels or whatever.
