im part of the religion that doesnt believe in religion. Personally i think if you need god (or who ever your religion looks up to) for faith (or what ever for), that you are not as strong and independant as someone who can concour the same task without the need of someone else to watch over and make sure everything goes ok. Like when i was young i prayed to god that my grandparents who were sick for them not to die, and they both did within that year. Followed by my great aunt then great great grandmother. So personally i think that believing in god is an insecurity, and you are a stronger person if you can do it on your own. NOW dont hate or bash, this is just my person opinion, and everyone is allowed to have that.
As far as life goes, i just enjoy sleeping in, golfing, hanging out with buddies, drinking, and chillin with girls. I think that if you respect others you get respect back, and i also believe that absolutly everything happens for a reason and if something happens, figure out why, and learn from it; this ultimatly will also make you a stronger individual.
im not sure if this really answered the question posed, i kinda just rambled on..
