- I just have a really hard time accepting that the universe came to be this jaw-droppingly complex randomly. I know there are scientific explanations for it, and they make sense to me when I read them. But the odds just seem so small.
And believing in God gives me the hope that 1) there is an afterlife and this isn’t all I get and 2) that eventually horrible people will get their just desserts, because a lot of them sure don’t seem to be getting it now. This all makes me feel better.
