Welcome amalynne. Smile

I went through similar phases to the ones you describe, I think all those feelings are pretty common to those leaving faith behind. It's strange how ultimately, after you go through the anger or resentment part, you end up feeling so much more at peace than when believing in God. Well, at least I do. Like accepting reality and not grasping for fairy tales really changes how you look at everything!

hope you enjoy your stay here.
