I share your feelings about anti-theism.
Two things I've always missed/been jealous of about religious faith, particularly the Judeo-Christian ones I'm most familiar with, are comfort at the end and community. I'll never begrudge anyone for minding their own business and taking comfort in what--on the face of it, is a nice thing.
I'm really glad your mom has that comfort.

"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
