Self-delusion can be helpful for individuals whose lives are a living hell. That's why, like cockroaches, religion thrives in areas of poverty.

I think that once you pry your ego into the message box, LD (which seems to require a pile driver) there probably isn't any room left for a response by anyone. So we use our own boxes.

You do not think people generally look to God for help in times of desperation?
I think people look to God for strength all the time and even more when times are hard.
I don't disagree at all.

The only reason your life is not a living hell right now is because of the grace of God.
God would actually be doing you a favor if He allowed you to go through a living hell. So be careful of what you say.
Perhaps, but poverty is not the direct reason.Self-delusion can be helpful for individuals whose lives are a “living hell”. That's why, like cockroaches, religion thrives in areas of poverty.

That sounds like a threat. It would not be at all surprising if it were.
It's not a threat. I just find it appalling that someone who apparently is living a relatively easy life could have the nerve to suppose his good fortune is all his own doing. That's an insult to all those who are suffering, and an insult to God.
You know, I keep trying to convince God that I am finished with spiritual tests of relative poverty and it is time for him to test me with WEALTH.
Maybe it's time to stop praying for your god to give you wealth and start working to make it happen for yourself.

Suffering believers. Prosperous atheists. Oh, the irony. Maybe your Cosmic Zombie lover has a soft spot for us heretics?
