Gods may make you feel protected and encouraged - but you should probably investigate the quality of people in your life if you don't find the same from them. Or, maybe, it's you. They do give you protection and encouragement, but you're ungrateful or unreceptive or just don't notice.How do I become more receptive?
Meanwhile, the notion that it's -god- actually making you feel any way at all, a little less fleshed out than the reality of other people in our lives. It might be more accurate to state that -you- make you feel that way, and you're a person....after all.
-all of that can only be an aside, mind you, because we've established that..yes, I do have that thing you get from a god - without any gods. We agree that we feel encouraged and protected - and that these are valuable goods.
