Religion is a fanciful word.
I mean, not only is it interesting, people literally fancy it.
And I know, that being in this island means that we need to be really careful with words, and I don't wanna offend anyone anyways.
I respect people who look up to a greater someone, believing in a being that is always there for you, guiding your way, taking care of you.
Everyone needs some form of spiritual/emotional support and religion is a great way of achieving them.
When life sucks, you need to know that it's all gonna get better.
When life rocks, you want to know that someone is responsible for it.
What's different is this:
An atheist will think that life sucks/rocks because you made it so.
You work for your own destiny.
I have no idea what other people, with their faiths, think of this.
Do they give full credit, of their lives, to God?
It's great to have a religion, but it's just not my thing.
Obsession irks me.
I just wanna say that, if you do not belong to any religion, please respect others with their respective faiths and beliefs.
And to those who prays to God, any God, ALL THE MORE should you respect everyone else.
Conversion can be quite offensive, if you want people to honour your God, please do the same to others. Such things are mutual.
I am quite sure I'd stay an atheist for life.
