I've already heard about the 7 year cycle, very interesting. I think Vsauce talked about it.
Well, DMT has been known to produce similar effects as "seeing god" and we have a gland to produce it, so it must have some evolutionary basis. As for Atheist coming in to contact with god, Christians have come into contact with Muhammad or Allah. Your point?
If god loves me he was so perfect to make me mentally ill. If he wants whats best then he shouldn't have made me this way and maybe he shouldn't take such pains to conceal his existence. I don't understand that phrase at the end, please elaborate.
Misunderstood that, sorry.
Well I would say atheists don't want people to leave the flock either from what I have experienced over the years and on this forum. Atheism has many different dogmas as well. Dig deep enough in this forum and you will find they disagree on what atheism actually means. In the end all perception of reality is sum of experiences, and I can't say that enough.
Part of understanding is accepting. From your perspective, you need to understand why you are the way you are. Is it a mental defect, or a challenge given to you to overcome? Trust me I used to curse God, and life for all the things I had to go through, but in the end it made me a stronger person, after time. Time is the key thing. All souls come to earth to inhabit human bodies for the life of the body, and accept the challenges that body will have. It's part of our learning process, and essential to our learning and wisdom. You can only overcome through challenges, and what you are in now is a challenge to help you grow, and create who you will grow into and become in the future. You will be a lot wiser than those who have not had your challenges and instead have had an easier life. Although we all have our challenges in life, through them we overcome them for ourselves to learn from them and grow. And with that growth we can help others, and the process continues for all souls to experience the life in the physical realm so we are stronger and wiser when we enter back into the spiritual realm.
Just remember that you are young, and trust me as you get older things will become more clear. I can give you information, but you must grow to achieve the wisdom of experience. Trust me.

Yea, OCD is likely something I'll put up with until I die. Its just how it works, you loose one obsession you gain three more. If I do learn to deal with the OCD thoughts it wouldn't be because god would want me to? I'm born sick but forced to be strong? Not how it works man. You've linked me to the same website about 4 times, please state more sources than just one.
