On religion...

I know it is extremely controversial, but I am pretty confused right now so I thought I'd share my views. Please don't be disrespectful if you comment.

I think the existence of God is possible; however, I think He is a lot different then how people see Him. I think He has no problem with same sex relationships because why would He make people that way if He wasn't? God loves all creatures no matter what.
I have always found it hard to believe in God because of something my father once told me. Have you ever been afraid of the dark when you are alone, but fine when someone is with you? That's what he sees God as; the thing people make up to feel safe in the "dark".
Recently one night, I was lying in my dark room crying because I suffer from long term depression. I asked out into the darkness for someone to help me. To save me from my pain. I was determined to ignore everyone the next day and just be miserable. I went to bed and when I woke up I was scared. I'm not sure why but I texted my friend right away. Needless to say, I wasn't emo that day.
Now some would immediately assume this was an act of God, but not me. I take a slightly more... analytical approach. I prefer to look at a topic from multiple points of view before I form an opinion on it. That's why I think that another possibility is that it is in fact the human mind. My bad mood and fear of becoming depressed would obviously give me a nightmare. I scarcely remember my dreams. That would cause me to wake up frightened.
As Mr. Valletti has said many times, reality is based upon how a person perceives things. I suppose I have the ability to alter reality in the sense that I can see things in different aspects.

  1. I have always found that life is not always an easy process, for myself or everyone else I know. Sometimes it seems like you try and you try and you try and you never seem to be getting anywhere, and then for not apparent reason, later everything just falls into place. My suggestion is that you should talk to your parents about your feelings, and hopefully they can give you some insight into where you are.
