Do you believe in God?

I am starting to not believe in him. No proof. Good things happen to bad people. This man should not be having support because he punched me in the face, told me to kill myself, threatened my life & another man threatened my life & said nobody cares about me & never paid me back. I get called names for no reason.

The adage I use is: If it’s not science, it’s superstition. I was raised Roman Catholic, my skepticism took decades to accept myself as a freethinker.

“There are, after all, atheists who say they wish the fable were true but are unable to suspend the requisite disbelief, or who have relinquished belief only with regret. To this I reply: who wishes that there was a permanent, unalterable celestial despotism that subjected us to continual surveillance and could convict us of thought-crime, and who regarded us as its private property even after we died? How happy we ought to be, at the reflection that there exists not a shred of respectable evidence to support such a horrible hypothesis.”

@BlueSkyKing Unfortunately I am agnostic..but not that I want to be. Just like the quote says.."relinquished belief only with regret".😢
