Re: The Health Effects of Leaving Religion

I agree A does not equal B. But the effects quoted in the article are real. Imagine finally realizing that what you were told for so long are not correct, then you finally leave. You prayed, ate and worshiped with these people who you now disagree with.

Stress works havoc on our bodies, no matter what form it comes in.

Re: The Health Effects of Leaving Religion
amen there! and yet, many find only the disagreement mentioned by E45. I will say that, having been one of them, this serves to reveal one's premises, if they can but see it. Having never been a 'joiner,' i've never left a church under a cloud--but my disagreement was revealed here.
