I'm Jealous of your relationship with God


Dear Proselytizers,

I love your enthusiasm for God. I admire your faith. In fact, I’m somewhat jealous of the purity of your convictions. I wish I could believe like you do. But, I don’t.

My religious upbringing was not that solid. I have some basic knowledge of the ‘facts’ that drive you to try to convince me to go back. But, I think I would rather sleep in. I believe in what you believe, sort of. But, sometimes when I hear the things you ‘bank’ on, it makes me a bit uncomfortable. Part of it is that I’m just not sure you are right. But, the other part is maybe you are.

In any case, it sounds like a wonderful mythology. However, I have a hard time accepting it as fact and I would just rather do something else on Sunday. I know good deeds count for something, that’s what I’m banking on. See you on the other side, or not.

Sincerely,
The Unholy.
