Re: Losing your religion

[(Anonymous)]

I wouldn't say I abandoned it. My sense of religion was always very faint, so it's more like I stopped trying to pretend I believed at all. My immediate family was raised Chatolic, but my parents, outside of telling me there was a god and what he stood for, never really tried to force me into being religious. I prayed but we didn't usually go to church and I skipped my first communion out of pure, unadulterated laziness on my mom's and I's parts. We didn't want to take/take me to classes.

As I grew older I started to rationalize it more, and the more I thought about it, I could not believe that a concept so questionable as a god was responsible for creating the universe. God (gods, in general) seemed too convenient to me; too centered on human needs and wants to be responsible for something that is billions of years old and so vast we can't ever be sure what's actually out there. Too easy an explanation for creation and purpose. At first I said I was Agnostic, but when I realized that I was saying it "just in case" of the consequences of not believing, I didn't find it fair that something that's supposed to be merciful only keeps my faithfulness because of the threat of punishment.
