Thinking a god is guiding you on an infinitesimally tiny planet while 40,000 innocent children suffer and die horrific deaths each and every day is astounding arrogance. Looking within yourself for the answers is, of course, silly.
Self serving beliefs are very dangerous. This is why witches were burned at the stake and Rhinos are hunted to near extinction for their horns. It's why Bush started the Iraq war and why the terrorists flew planes into our buildings. The terrorists had beliefs that they would be reward in heaven with virgins for killing Americans. That belief served them well. It's not enough to believe something because it feels good.
And there are no events in the bible that have been are proven fact beyond the exchanging of money.
At least be honest about your 'faith'.
