My belief in no God, which has sustained me since high school, is starting to feel shaky.
  • mid-life crisis

    You are right there is no God. Fagaddaboutit, it's superstition. One creates one's own purpose in life..or one doesn't. When my daughter and her family are grateful for dinner and they feel the need to thank something, they thank Alan Ginsberg. Supersition is sometimes comforting and as long as you keep it to yourself there's probably no harm in it. The notion of meeting ones dead loved ones again is comforting to most people. Religion (God) is a concept people made up to deal with the reality that we are all going to die. It's the human condition. Create your own pupose, your own meaning....volunteer at a childrens hospital.
