Never found myself particularly hopeless.

But i agree, religion and belief in your god is nothing more than a security blanket. You fear pain, death and separation and so you cling to the notion that you will not have to deal with these things.

And yet atheists like myself abandon this comforting pablum because the evidence simply does not support the weight of the supernatural claims.

So i guess my response to this this post is : So what?
