Are there any other MNers who have been through this? I used to be a strong believer for over 20 years. But recently over the last few years I just don't feel the same. I don't know if this is a permanent state, but I have to say I feel more 'me' than I have been for awhile.
I guess I just outgrew that system of beliefs/philosophy.
I believe that we (human beings) find the prospect of death hard to deal with, (along with the injustices/sufferings we encounter/witness going on in the world) so in order to make these issues/problems more 'palatable' we have created life after death, heaven and hell etc.
My becoming an agnostic has repercussions in my marriage (my Dh doesn't want me to tell the kids), and will create problems (possibly) in my relationships with my friends who are Christians.
Can anyone share me of their experiences, or offer some advice?
TIA
