will ever put a gun to your head and force you to believe. I’m shocked by how angry and hateful atheists get at their fellow pedes who bring up prayer or faith. You are acting exactly like liberals, going in to a post just to hate-reply. It’s sad. All we are doing is praying snd encouraging others to pray. If you don’t want to, that’s fine. There’s no need to harass those who want to. We are all on the same team here.
Where i used to work, a group of people got together by the flagpole every day at lunch. They didn’t demand anyone join them. They didn’t force the company to make prayer mandatory. They just got together and prayed, and everyone else moved on about their day.
There’s no need for the infighting. God bless

I sort of entered religion this way, but when I prayed and, to my shock, got definitive answers a few times, everything changed for me. I see organized religion a bit differently as have a community has huge benefits. Just one is hearing different viewpoints of various teachings. Another big one is being able to band together to help people on a large scale. We try to prevent people from falling through cracks alone. I am still not a literalist and cannot grasp why anyone would be. Even if the stories were literal, that level of understanding would have no meaning.
I come from a science and engineering background and my parents were actively anti religion. I completely understand the logical skepticism.
