Speaking for myself, you couldn't be further from the truth. The belief in 'God' is difficult because of course He isn't exactly on 'speaking terms' with most of us and then of course there's the matter of trying to live a more unselfish life. In some of my earlier posts on faith I was trying to convey that 'faith' shouldn't be the main part of a belief ie blind faith. So no, it's not 'easy' at all.Well, you are overcomplicating things. by trying to include belief into your life.
I am firmly in the "atheist camp" and I try to live an unselfish life and be nice to people but I have no need of religion to make me want to do that!
