  i had a conversation the other day with a relative - we started talking about death and so on, so forth.

  i havent been attending for almost 3 years now and really havent been harrassed too much - just ignored.. i stopped attending meetings for a number of reasons, a few were belief differences which i knew would become trouble, but the main reason why i couldnt attend anymore is i felt fake.

  but i felt that people only wanted to associate with me because we shared one thing and one thing only....a belief.

  when you left the borg, did any of you feel that god was dissapointed in you?

  i know in my heart that i am not turning my back on god, but my mind says something else (and so do the people in the religion).

  it's weird, when i was a catholic, i never felt guilty for missing mass, i knew that god loved me.
