Does Our Religious Beliefs Change As We Age?
Do you consider yourself Religious, Spiritual, Agnostic or Atheist? Everyone has their own opinion about God, or the lack of God in their lives. Very religious families have Atheist within them, separating themselves from the herd. Why does God touch of some of us, but not all of us? Are our hearts simply not open to God and what He offers, or is God a myth that some of us cling to for support and comfort in a very chaotic and troubling world?
When faced with a crisis, some of the most religious loose their faith in God, believing that God has deserted them. But has God really deserted us? Or are we simply experiencing life (the good and bad) as God intended us to experience to purify our souls? Earth has been described as hell by some and as boot camp for our souls by others. How we survive life's challenges is rooted in how we perceive God and His love for us.
What is fascinating is the drastic differences of who and what God is by the religious. Which religion is correct? Or are any of the documented religions correct in their beliefs? Have we all gotten it wrong? Some believe God is really a green Martian and Earth is a scientific project for their amusement. How has our idea of religion changed over the years? With age comes wisdom, so now that we're 50 and over, how has wisdom effected our belief systems?
