I am disappointed, but not surprised,

by the lack of respect some people show toward others--most specifically in the realm of religion.

It is very upsetting to have people use bad events to attempt to prove that God doesn't exist. I don't believe it's God's Will to prevent every single thing that could happen to a person. I believe God will be there for you every single time you fall so you have someone to pick you back up

that's terrible :(

I can actually credit you with a great tempering of my feelings towards religion and a great growth of appreciation for the power of faith.
It can be a very comforting thing.

And I could not say anything for a very long time because I realized that, no matter what explanation I came up with, I will never be able to explain what is in my heart. Bad things do not make me lose my faith, they make me believe with greater ferocity that there must be more--much, much more--than this life. Bad things shouldn't happen to good people, but they do. And maybe, someday or somehow, those good people will find a greater relief. Or maybe, while they are learning how to live with the bad, they will find something that makes the everyday a little easier--a little lighter. Their burdens will not only be their own

I'm a non-believer, or rather, i've lost my faith in Him, the almighty Alpha and Omega

It's so nice to hear someone talk about God so confidently. I am proud of my religion but it always seems that its such a taboo subject, that I can not openly talk about it. Thank you for writing this. I believe that you are an incredibly strong person. I am sorry that your friend said that to you. I am so sorry that I only just met you. But, you've really changed my life. My thoughts, and prayers go out to you and your loved ones. Merry Christmas.
