Finding God in Hopeless Places: Prison, Poverty, and other Foxholes
Update: 2021-02-01
Description
I wanna begin asking questions surrounding issues I've either thought to myself, read, or have watch something on TV that had me spiraling into Freudian rabbit hole. I many times overthink some scenes in TV shows and find deeper meaning than the writers probably intended. It's like The Beatles fanatics and their lyrics. Sometimes I overreach but still I think the thinking itself is good enough to talk about. Why is it that people aren't surprised when someone has a "coming to Christ" moment after life has beaten them in the back of the head. They find God and become more religious as the situations around them become more and more dire and plenty more serious. Why is that? And what comfort do they gain from it? What is about that comfort that sometimes they have massive reawakenings and review their lives and past actions, they become full of remorse and guilt at times... Seeking repentance and redemption. What is it about religious thought that drives them to want to improve and grow? Is it a simple fear of hell? I think it's beyond that.
