I readily admit that I wasn't able to just walk out the door and into any old church and find what I needed. But there are lots of sincere believers.
I can't tell you if it is 50%, or 5% or 0.5% of the congregants; I think it is in the 2% to 20% range, but they are there.

so you believed there was a "god", before you faced these crises? hmm. and where did that belief happen to come from? for the record, i have "looked into the abyss" several times in my life; i never sensed any supernatural power/god at that time. was i missing something?
