Which is sort of the op. If I like religion, is there a good reason to abandon it? Is a comforting half truth better than a bleak one?

@Cinjin
That's interesting, you say life is better for you post deconversion (or whatever the correct term is). If it's not a rude question, were you raised as a Christian? Or were you atheist - Christian - atheist. I ask because my experience was atheist - Christian and I was miserable as an atheist.

Oh and I listen to everyone ;-) although I don't often agree with them...

Half truths don't exist and there is no alternative to the truth , bleak or not.
