Been a few months now and so far I got zero payoff. Squat. Diddly. I preferred my comfortable lie to this ugly truth, but having unplugged, I now can't plug myself back in or unthink what I thought.
I can't even have fun debating with christians because I would not want them to lose what I lost!
I think I'm going through the kuber Ross model for Yahweh and I'm stuck on anger.
I guess it must be different for everyone depending on their experience with religion. Becoming an atheist had a huge pay off for me. I still get what you mean though. Sometimes you think how much easier life could have been if you would have never doubted in the first place. What is it that you really miss about being religious?
*hugs*
I guess I miss the sense of security which comes from believing there is a Plan. Praying for me was a bit like fight club. When it was over, nothing was resolved, but the problems seemed smaller.
Somebody else mentioned false comfort. I'm not sure what that is! Comfort is just, comfortable.
