So, i've been a christian i suppose, for i guess most my life. I was raised christian, but it's always been my own choice to believe in god.
But the latest time i've been having a rather big identity crisis, I don't really know who I am any longer and i'm not sure what to believe anymore.
I guess i'm at a point where I can choose whether i'd like to believe in god or not.
Even though i was never a strong believer, i still liked the idea that someone was watching over me, and there was a purpose to my life. I've kinda just focused on the core of the faith, like; be nice, love your fellow man and such.
I would still continue to live by these morals even if i renounced my faith.
So my question is, should i stop "believing" in a god because it's more realistic that he actually doesn't exist, when i fear i might lose my sense of purpose and belonging.
(should i stop imagining i have an invisible friend because he doesn't exist, when this imaginary friend makes me happy?)
