I know we have a few really isolated people here, and I know we have a few Christians, but I'm interested to see if there many (or even any) who exist in both groups.
*EDIT* Thank you all for your answers. It's been a nice discussion to be a part of for once! It seems fair to say that the christian faith fro those who have it seems to help a bit in most cases, greatly in others, and fail for some. A common cause of "failure" seems to be a mis-selling of the basic message, the nature of which varies depending upon which imperfect human tried to give you the faith. The God I believe in, has given us everything we need to have a great life, if we can only just learn to use it right.
Most of us need to live a long life just to figure that out, then we die!
I find even with what be felt to be good churches, that I can only get so far.
And most churches, most too were just expected to be "audience".
I'm frightened, anxious, isolated, lonely, frustrated, all the time, every day mostly.
I can't break out of it, and am seriously concerned, and only have God's Promise to hold onto and that's it.
I am intelligent enough to "cut it" n life and church, and community. But I just can't break out of all the useless traits that have compounded over the decades before diagnosis.
It's constantly UNBEARABLE.
