Skyldfølelse, fortrydelse vil ødelægge mig... hvis jeg ikke lærer at acceptere min egen ufuldkommenhed.

No one has lived so close to his skeleton as I have lived to mine, from which results an endless dialogue and certain truths which I manage neither to accept nor to reject.

I was born in a time when the majority of young people had lost faith in God, for the same reason their elders had had it – without knowing why. And since the human spirit naturally tends to make judgments based on feeling instead of reason, most of these young people chose Humanity to replace God. I, however, am the sort of person who is always on the fringe of what he belongs to, seeing not only the multitude he’s a part of but also the wideopen spaces around it. That’s why I didn’t give up God as completely as they did, and I never accepted Humanity. I reasoned that God, while improbable, might exist, in which case he should be worshipped; whereas Humanity, being a mere biological idea and signifying nothing more than the animal species we belong to, was no more deserving of worship than any other animal species. The cult of Humanity, with its rites of Freedom and Equality, always struck me as a revival of those ancient cults in which gods were like animals or had animal heads.

@screptid I didn't realize it was a quote. And I was talking about studies and statistics that show the opposite of what was quoted (since I assumed it was your own).

@liesofpyn Regardless of your feedback, it's a quote I came across in a book I was reading as I stated in my reply to the person above you. My real life "circle" is definitely people becoming more religious. Things are complicated nowadays due to the internet and globalization, unlike back then at the time of the author (early 1900) where patterns were more consistent. So I don't really disagree with you. I could respond to the humanity part but I don't have a solid stance on the topic anyway
