"I took a speed reading course and read “War and Peace” in twenty minutes. It involves Russia."
Woody Allen
“There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old’s life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged . One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs."

Thoughts on my recent feelings
So the deciding factor should be my emotions, but they are changing every damn day! I just hate it when shit like this happens to me, why, oh why, can't I just decide and not be so confused...

Not alone.
These discoveries scared me. It was not what I had wanted to learn. But now I hadto know the truth. I studied the Historical Jesus, the history of Christianity, the Bible, theology, and the philosophy of religion. Almost everything I read – even the books written by conservative Christians – gave me more reason to doubt, not less.
I started to panic. I felt like my best friend – my source of purpose and happiness and comfort – was dying. And worse, I was killing him. If only I could have faith! If only I could unlearn all these things and just believe. I cried out with the words from Mark 9:24, "Lord, help my unbelief!"
I tried. For every atheist book I read, I read five books by the very best Christian philosophers. The atheists made plain, simple sense, and the Christian philosophers were lost in fog of big words that tried to hide the weakness of their arguments.
I did everything I could to keep my faith. But I couldn't do it. I couldn't force myself to believe what I knew wasn't true. On January 11, 2007, I whispered to myself: "There is no God."
