    I assume everything you just wrote is based on faith, because it’s not supported at all by facts.

      In personal experience. Believing the way I and many others have certainly helps you check yourself before you wreck yourself/your surroundings constantly, and ends in having the self-respect and self-esteem that comes from being a responsible, helpful, peaceful member of society (well, we try, but the better you get at controlling your anger or your nerves or whatever and being easier on the world, the better you feel). It fills the void that shopping, hooking up, using drugs and consuming mindless entertainment eventually fail at filling. Idk how to make people realize it besides exemplifying IRL and yapping about it, and I don’t think anyone can do anything more about it either.
