Blessed are the atheists for they will find God

Abstract
The dogmas of Catholicism, the religion I was born into, no longer speak to me. The Christian traditions and beliefs as I learned them seem increasingly remote. They are answers. And faced with the world’s mystery I have more and more questions. I’m discovering sentiments like mine in many other people, above all young people and women, who don’t deny God but are seeking a spirituality that truly nourishes the meaning of their lives. And in search of that treasure, where they will also find their heart, they are reviewing, rethinking, moving away from, heading in a different direction than and even outright rejecting the religion they learned. Despite the mistaken paths and the lost time, I’m so happy that I developed that capacity before dying and am able to live in the time of that step forward.
