Scientists discover that atheists might not exist, and thats not a joke

27. I believe, for me,

that whether or not there is actually a god, I am feel more fulfilled as a human being by feeding my spiritual side. T fact for me is that my faith (speaking for myself) has given me all those things that are the opposite of what people say is bad about religion. I tapped into more tolerance, more empathy, more charity and more serenity in my life through my faith.

I would never say those thing are not possible for others without a faith, but I would expect others to respect me regardless of my faith, just as I respect those who have no faith. (I use the word "faith" because I am one of the growing group of people who consider themselves "More spiritual than religious." )

I think religion gets unfairly pigeon-holed now days because of the fundamentalist practitioners. I have seen a lot of people made better through a faith in a Higher Power.
