Cuando convences a alguien de dejar de creer en algo que les da fe ¿Te conviertes en el monstruo, o su “liberador”?

Llegué a casa y me puse a rezar, y al llegar a aquello de «ruega por nosotros, pecadores, ahora y en la hora de nuestra muerte», una voz íntima me dijo: «¿Pecadores?, ¿pecadores nosotros?, ¿y cuál es nuestro pecado?». ¿Cuál es nuestro pecado, padre? -¿Cuál? -me respondió. Ya lo dijo un gran doctor de la Iglesia católica apostólica española, ya lo dijo el gran doctor de La vida es sueño, ya dijo que «el delito mayor del hombre es haber nacido». Ése es, hija, nuestro pecado: el de haber nacido.


Wow, no me tiembla el pulso al ponerle las 5 estrellas. Pensaba que nada superaría a Niebla pero...

Maybe it’s because I read when I needed to find an answer, but this is now part of me. I don’t believe in God, but I have always believed in finding the good in people, and living knowing that that is what brings me peace.
Seeing that someone feels what I feel, someone like Unamuno, brought me so much peace in realizing that I should not feel ashamed of what I believe in. It doesn’t have to make sense to anyone, as long as it makes sense to you.
