There are lots of happy, successful, intelligent Christians.
It's like a tumor. If the tumor is benign, then maybe it's better not to perform surgery. That is my attitude with my Christian family and friends.
Well that is true, christianity is more a hindrance on people then a strenght. I for one feel much less depressed sense I left the cult as I can much more objectively examine my own purpose and self. Not to mention feeling better that no one is being tortured.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
