    I battle with the belief in God. Yes, I believe He exists but I'm not sure if He cares. I bring my kids to church every Sunday (can't hurt I guess) but when I really think about God and the world He's created and allowed to exist in such disarray i can't help think of Him at best as an indiffernt parent, at worst an abusive one.

    I want there to be a loving God, oh so desperately!

    But after calling and pleading for hours at a time to God, I have always been left by myself.

    Is he too busy for me? Is he laughing at me with his buddies up there? Is he all in my head?

    I NEED ANSWERS!!!

    Why Netty, why do you believe in God?

    loaded question. But I guess some of it may have to do with the fact that I have very small children, maybe. If it was just me to consider, I dont know how I would answer that question. Something about the obligation to the kids I think. And maybe it could be a part of the JW brainwashing I have never considered trying to erase.

    I am sorry you are going through this Michael! I think maybe I am just like you, I want to desperately believe. I do have my moments where I say the same thing to myself that you just said above.

    I always hold out hope that one day something or someone will show me something significant, but then again............
