I’m not a religious person. In fact, I’m anti-religious — if
that’s a thing. I believe that organized religions create significantly more
anguish than they do good. History will back me up on this regard.
However, the concept of religion itself does have its
benefits, mainly because it allows people to stay hopeful. It gives meaning to
life when people can’t find meaning on their own. It allows them to see the
good in the seemingly horrible, especially when it comes to their misfortune.
