I was raised Methodist but am closer to Agnostic. While I do pray, simply because I think we need something to believe in to explain why there is so much pain in the world and a hope for a better place in the end, i do question what that place is. Maybe it's because I can understand the theory of evolution better than an all powerful being that would allow all the suffering that we are forced to deal with. I would like to think we will be reunited with all the loved ones we have lost in our lives but, again, I question how that will occur. I will say, tho, that I read the "Left Behind" series of books and was so engrossed in them that I hated for them to end. They did make me reconsider my thinking a bit and boost my hope for a better ending to our lives. I do recomend the series to anyone who likes to read. It is an incredible adventure that explains the "Second Coming" in a way that is believable. Please read them. |
