I am very confused...

RE: I am very confused...
Hi Jenny, welcome to the forum.

Just so I get this straight, you thought your only reason to study was because of God? How about studying to get ahead in life, to get a better grasp on things that are a real benefit in your life?

As for a substitute for a god. You are using this god as an invisible undetectable crutch. When you realize that crutch is just your imagination you will realize that the only one to give credit to or put blame on is you. I don't "lean on" anything or anyone. My successes are my own accomplishments, my failures are my own shortcomings.

Atheism doesn't do "leaning on to", it is nothing more than a disbelief in gods. Life is what you make of it.

If you think that is too hard, well reality can be hard, it doesn't make it any less real.
Best regards,
Leo van Miert
