Answer 5

Mankind's loneliness in this quadrant has left him lost

Answer 6

Yes that happened to me as well. For many years as a kid and into my young adult years, I felt no need for religion as my family was never involved in it nor was God ever mentioned in our house. That was unless my father hurt himself working on the car or something and then he would jump up and down screaming and shouting words that made it sound like a regular church revival coming out of the garage.

After I married and started my now very large family, I found that something in my life was missing and perhaps always had been. I had most of the things I thought I wanted in life but for some reason just did not feel as if I was "complete". So I went in search of God and found myself down at the local church where I went in and gave my life to Christ.

I stayed in that church for several years and tried as hard as I could to fill this void that I had had for as long as I could remember, with all the things I was taught there. Although for a while it seemed to be giving me what I felt I needed, I soon realized that I was only pretending to those people that I understood what they said about God and that I could only pretend to myself that I knew what the bible was saying to me. So I decided there was no value in staying some place where honestly nothing made any more sense than before I got there, I just wanted it to.

I drifted around for the next few years in search of something I could not even describe. I was looking for something that made sense. I was wanting some way to understand our purpose for living this life and the reason why it was so incredibly hard at times along the way. From all outside appearances and all my past experience, life just became more and more confusing and along with that, my desire for hapiness continued to grow and grow.

What I found, for me, was this. Unless I discovered for myself and not what others said or believed to be true, the real meaning of life and why all the things happen here on earth as they do, I was never going to have this peace, this comfort or satisfaction in life, that meant more to me than anything else.

I started by trying to find a way to first understand my need for this satisfaction, my need for answers. I guessed if I didn't know why I was searching so hard in the first place, I was probably not going to know that I found it when I did! And I did. I found a way to at least start my journey towards getting all my questions answered. I came to a place where I could begin to realize my true desire in life and why it was so hard to get where I wanted to go.

So, there is my answer LOL. Thanks for a really good question as I know so many others have it as well. I linked an awesome video if you are interested, in what I found for myself as the only real place I could start to find what I was searching for my whole life. Best wishes to you!  

Answer 7

You would be feeling that because there is no God. The placebo effect can only last so long, and do so much.

There won't be any difference with other religions either.  Maybe a temporary high, but then back down again.

Answer 8

There are times when i feel that people who feel their religion isn't complete should be more committed to making it complete.

Satisfaction comes to those who are willing to work for it.

Answer 9

just try another  

Answer 10

Absolutely not. I am always looking for more within my religion, but I think of it as growing in faith. No denominational church can fulfill all of your needs all of the time. Christianity supplies it all, but as long as you live you will need to learn more and more about the Word and the way to live a Christian life. You will have everything your need and then some.  

Answer 11

I used to, then I left Christianity and found something better.

Answer 12

Once you've found Darwin religion is inconsequential, why look for something better when the truth is already in front of your eyes?

Answer 13

Nope, because I am not "Religious" I just have faith in a God of love.

I have been known to dabble in looking into "Religion" but I think it all gets a little too silly, so I quit and stick with my relationship with God.
