"love at first sight"....

[CaptainBubba]

The problem is that once it occurs to you how unfounded and unsupported the idea of an afterlife is, it becomes practically impossible to force yourself into accepting religion. I would LOVE to believe that after life there is more. I would do anything to think that.

For example: If I was more happy believing that there was a unicorn in my refrigerator, could that desire alone truly make me BELIEVE it? No. I could claim to, but in my mind I'd know there is practically no chance of there being a unicorn in my fridge.

I'm seriously considering voluntary brainwashing. I'd rather live misguided and content that in fear of the gruesome truth.
