I suffered a nervous breakdown 10 years ago; I was about to lose my job (which happened several months later), and ultimately, slid into foreclosure, and then, to save my home (successfully, by the way), went into bankruptcy. During that time, I had a religious conversion, but eventually, over time, came to my senses, decided that it was all nonsense, and that I needed to stop wasting my precious time and money.
Since then, I have actively worked on my physical and mental health, and with it, my financial health, also, and see religious faith as wasting one's time beating the wind. I do think that one of the prime motives of religious faith is social and sexual. A lot of families like religion, as it is a way to network and keep them socially connected to their communities; while at the same time, I think that a lot of men use religious faith as an aphrodisiac. Plus, religious faith is emotional morphine for others, a way to cope with death and dying.
