It's not something I'm particularly proud of but I kind of have a knee-jerk reaction to religious people... it's not that I think they don't think. It's that I think they don't want to think (when it comes to some things).

I don't know how fair that is and am relatively sure that's my own perception coloring things.

I just know how much I would love to have something to believe in. Sometimes its just scary that there aren't any grand answers at all or feeling of faith for me. So when it comes to the meaning of life and what happens after death, justice, etc., etc. I think for religious people it is easier to just have faith and not have to think about it.

And I know a lot of religious people say having faith is difficult but this might be one of those times where you can't really understand how difficult not having faith can be, even when ultimately you don't want it.

I love thinking, I do it almost everyday! ;)

Jokes aside, the practice of "having faith"... (and for me, at least, it's a practice, it's something I actively do when I wake up in the morning)... that can be intimidating, in a way, because it's not something based in knowing, in the way I would read a book. It's based more on a gut-feeling, and feelings can be mutable. idk, it's difficult for me to explain, i'm not very good at this, sorry :/

I was an atheist for a while (and a whole bunch of other things), and unfaith also had its terrifying moments... but it had good moments, too.

Whatever you choose, whatever path you take, I hope you have those good moments, too! :)

(I've seen some of your comments b/c i lurk on F!S a lot, and you seem like a really awesome person in general.)
