"There are no atheists in a foxhole or before a test in school"

While the above sounds simplistic, I believe that what I mean to say is that these discussions are all well and good.

But, when you find yourself on your deathbed, or in imminent danger of losing your life, or a loved ones life, will you be able to keep yourselves from crying out to a God, or any diety/higher power to be spared? Will your agnostic/athiestic beliefs hold up?

Thats what it all boils down to folks, a sense of comfort derived from belief in whatever "higher power" you choose to believe in.

I'm not judging anyone here. We all have free will to believe as we will.

I just have a really hard time believing we are all just a bunch of ants milling around with no purpose.

Something, call it light vs dark, good vs evil, whatever, something exists.

But thats just my opinion.
