padhyde Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 I have posted several contributions to this website. I guess it’s been for me, like others, a kind of catharsis. If once you held strong religious belief its loss can be a painful experience. It took over 60 years of my life finally to extinguish the last vestige of religiosity from my mind. Since then I have experienced a peace beyond my imagination when I was younger. I am increasingly aware of how continuous reading and writing about religion, its absurdity and dangers is a threat to the very peace of mind I now enjoy. If I was a lot younger I may well do all I could to expose the dangers of religion with all its falsehoods. But now I think I will move on to those other spheres of my life that continue to bring me such joy in the years I have left. There are so many people out there who are doing a wonderful job helping people to resolve their doubts. I wish them well. I was reflecting the other day about what advice I would give my new grandson when he is old enough to talk to. I guess it will be ‘Be, and make others, happy. Live in peace.’ I cannot think of anything else worth saying. That’s all from me for now. Regards to you all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
