It is often difficult to express what you feel on certain topics that are so prevalent in our human culture. Religion and politics are just two of the more obvious ones. You have done well in revealing your innermost thoughts on the subject of beliefs as experienced through religion. As beings that embody a spiritual presence, I believe that spirit is always seeking out the truth, and that truth can be found in the most unlikely of places.
It's difficult to talk about issues within a religion without implicating the sincere people who are truly seeking inner peace. The topic is so sensitive, and I'm not even sure if it's the right thing to write about. However, the truth is that problems like this exist everywhere—whether in a religion or not.
I have long-resisted organized religions, especially those that see divinity as something that lies outside ourselves. I have a spiritual practice, and have honed it over many years with influences from great thinkers and philosophers.
We all needed that one thing that would bring us sense of peace and it should be something that we are comfortable with. Thank you for reading this, Gillian.

You bravely go where few people tread. Everything, and I mean every thing!, is the right thing to write about.
Emika, I never touch on religion, yet I'm responding to your fight with severe anxiety disorder!
Your honesty is commendable. thank you for sharing!
Thank you, Karl
