Tthere was a time when desperately wanted to believe in the holy spirit and God, and I prayed and prayed and nothing ever happened. No warm fuzzy feeling, no tangible answers to my prayers. Don't you think it might be possible that what you feel is some kind of comfort that comes from within? Some assurance from within yourself that your God "has your back"?
Unfortunately for me I've always been a skeptic even from an early age. And y'know, God doesn't like skeptics.
@cheatie Yup, everyone should be a truth seeker regardless of their background. Unfortunately, such is not always the case whether theist, atheist, polytheist, henotheist, and the like. 'Keep on truck'n, search'n.
@WinteRest49 To be honest, it's foundation is truth seeking, instead of merely believing in a book written for illiterate sheepherders, in order to gain power and money. I want no part of the foundation of religion or any church. I prefer to ask questions and get answers that actually make sense, instead of the bull contained in "It's part of gawd's plan."
@DocStrange0123 How 'bout the shroud of Turin combined with personally experienced paranormal activity, by yourself, and others with you? I no longer just believe; I know. The archaic mythology is true, i.e. Good vs Evil, Advocate vs Adversary.
You didn't say you believe, you said you KNOW... well, here comes the question: how do you know? Warning: Appealing to emotions is not a valid argument, feelings are not evidence, millions "feel" and felt it through history regarding diferent gods; if 'because I feel it" was a valid argument (it's not) then Shiva, Allah, Ahura Mazda and thousands of gods are real, right? if that is what it takes for something to be real... so, I repeat: how do you know?
And here i thought i found a smart woman with a great caracter. Well atleast the cover is nice.

You said Atheism has no foundation. I said that's because it's based on common sense.
