You must have missed Ryft's posts... Dodgy


LittleA - one of the things that should be part of learning to be an adult is accepting the things you can't change and the things that are out of your control.

Religion is a way for people to feel 'in control' of death and chaos. They want there to be a reason for the senseless things they experience, and the finality of death, and the fact that sometimes guilty people go free and innocent people get punished. Religion becomes the 'equalizer' - they imagine that everyone will "get what's coming to them" - good or bad - no matter what happens in this life.

When you accept that you can't control everything, it frees you up to concentrate the things you can.

Death comes to everyone. And then your body returns to the cycle it came from. In between, you were given the gift of life and consciousness. Enjoy it! Savor it! Don't waste it worrying about what a make-believe punisher cares about. You have so many things to do and to be. You don't have to worry about a god taking care of you. You can worry about helping take care of the human race! (something god fails at miserably)
