My dying best friend
#15
RE: My dying best friend
I applaud you for your type of work, I know how it is to also lose someone to addiction like the friend/some one you worked with. Both of my brothers were addicts, one was able to beat it, the other passed away. It's hard for me to actually even write this because I'm pretty conservative with my feelings, but after reading what you wrote I felt it was worth coming forth with honesty. The main thing you proposed was the whole bit about religion being is it worth it or not. My one brother, at the beginning, found Christ, he went through his fazes, went Jung ho, reformed, is now normal ( I think an atheist in the making.). So, when it comes to this question of religion, maybe I judge from my experience, and maybe my brother at that point and time needed something to grab on too. He isn't religious anymore, and maybe any positive outlook would have done it, I'm just happy he's around.

The truth comes down to this, religion isn't for the best as a civilization, but if it helps a certain person with disabilities (or with out) get by and have some hope in their life then it's ok, at least to me.
