People who today believe in Jesus, Allah, whatever, don't believe in the ancient greek gods, or the slightly younger gods of the Roman empire. They don't believe in Ra or Anubis, the Goddess or any other deity that has been around since man came up with religion. So why does it seem so odd that I don't belive in the newest man-made gods?
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura
