well, i've been thinking about putting up this topic and was really interested in what people thought about God.
Well, here's a little background about my relationship with God. I grew up in a religious family and was told to believe in God, I had no option on that. Though a certain situation came into my family just this past year, and I completly lost faith in God, and believed that He wasn't there, He was just a make-believe figure that was made up for the benefit of society. There was no God.
Though slowly, after more than a year of atheism, I came to realizing what God was to me. God was my security blanket, He was what I believed in. Even if there was no such thing as God, I needed the IDEA of God there. Before when I still believed in God I talked to God, I told him my problems, I wasn't ashamed of being my true self around him, when I was scared, or sad, I turned to him for salvation, He knew my darkest fears, He was someone I needed in my life to survive.
So in conclusion, I came to realize that I cannot completly cut off God from my life, it would be like cutting off a part of me.
