Well, this is an interesting threadjack, but what part is the contradiction? My outlook on life was definitely more positive as a person of faith. I have become quite cynical and jaded about a lot of things, since I walked away from it. But I feel that I am now more grounded in some very hard truths, a reality that never hit home for me when I had God there to take care of it all. I prefer it this way, because I know that it's real. Faith is no longer a part of the equation. And for me, there is no contradiction, because I'd rather be cynical and know that I'm still seeking the truth, than be happy and refusing to see the truth. That's my view; please don't be offended by it.
