Welcome to the forums! Kudos to your friend! I also had a friend that gave me a few nudges in the right direction back in my early twenties. It was a very heartfelt moment when I let him know the role he had in my de-conversion.
Yup. Looks like Xtianity is doing as crap a job as ever in comforting the masses. I'm surprised the fear of hell doesn't evoke a similar response in most Christians that believe in this. Or...perhaps they do think this but quietly chant to themselves, "But god loves me. God loves me. He HAS to love me," because, y'know, believing very hard in one thing is enough to make it true, right?

But loads of you do!
Welcome CC. May you grow in knowledge
