to the purpose of the group:

The Interfaith Group is a "safe haven" group that provides opportunities for people of all faiths, spiritual leanings and non-belief to discuss religious topics and events in a positive and civil manner, with an emphasis on tolerance. Criticisms of individual beliefs or non-belief, or debates about the existence of higher power(s) are not appropriate in this group...

I'm going to go over your OP and think about what you said in the first paragraphs. It's difficult to express such thoughts but I felt that you did it well and with courage.
