One does not need to fully embrace religious doctrines or even believe in an afterlife to possess a sense of curiosity about such matters. While I would not assert with certainty that a divine being exists, I cannot deny the profound sense of connection I feel internally—a deep, almost gravitational inclination toward believing that there is something greater beyond the scope of our earthly existence.
@TheNewsOwl fter practicing Catholicism and learning catechism for many years, I reached the conclusion that metaphysics is bullshit. The only thing that matters is being at peace with one's conscience and being a positive presence for others and society as a whole—something that is already hard to achieve, perhaps even harder than belief.
@damian_reloaded You learned the Catechism! That's not as easy as people think. I admire your desire to be a pisitive presence in the world. You're right. It's hard.
