I didn't feel obliged to first disclose my feelings about the gland. But the equivalent feels appropriate here. Thus: I was raised highly observant and Orthodox, felt intensely religious. But then, around age thirteen, the whole edifice collapsed; ever since, I've been incapable of any religiosity or spirituality and more readily focus on religion's destructive than its beneficial aspects. But I like being around religious people and am moved by them-while baffled by how they can believe that stuff. And I fervently wish that I could. The end.
