  • That’s very possible. I could have done enough to defeat the atheism lol

    But I think if you’re looking for a prayer answering god you’ll have to have a psychotic break entirely. I don’t think many people can genuinely believe in that kind of anthropomorphic god without intense upbringing or being crazy (sorry religious people)

    Maybe you just need an intellectually acceptable alternative concept of some kind of spiritual god notion instead. We could also just be unchangeable products of our upbringing when it comes to such a thing and you’re out of luck


  • God’s already here all around you 🫵😐

    Or maybe god is a cold indifferent emotionless materialistic universe trying to kill us

    I could also be lucky because I was raised with a universal impossible to understand god. So if it makes you feel any better the god I have to believe in doesn’t really answer prayers or anything lol

    You could try doing psychedelics or something but those didn’t help for me…but perhaps those are a one way street to god


  • It’s funny, I have somewhat of an opposite problem. I am intellectually an atheist but I had a religious upbringing and it is impossible for me to emotionally unbelieve.

    Atheism is very simple and obvious to me, always had been, and the horrors of organized religion are well known but still no matter how hard I want to I have an emotional conception of a higher power that I can’t get rid of 🤷‍♀️

    I wish I could unbelieve in god but I was successfully infected by a religious mind virus as a child and I cannot undo it. I guess whatever I am now would probably be called “spiritual” but I consider myself an atheist in ordinary terms when people talk about sky god.
