…Is that good news? I hope so.
God hasn’t given up on you. He’s just respecting your choices.
It’s very good news, for now anyway. If God’s up there, I shouldn’t blame Him for these things either. I was raised Catholic and have a fair bit of sympathy for religion in some ways, it’s given me a lot, but find it very destructive in others, so my feeling about it are very, very complex. I’m sorry if I came across like I was judging your faith. I admire and sometimes even envy people’s faith, but I’ve largely lost mine. That’s not a slight on people who haven’t, but my politics are such that I often don’t like what it makes people think and do, if that’s fair.
