    The good news is I'm not going there for that reason although I can't really psychoanalyze myself to understand my real motive(s) for going to church.

    Good.

    Sometimes we need something 'else' to put our faith in.

    The research says that religious people are usually happier than non-believers. Although, there's been some recent research which suggests that this effect dissipates when you have areas or groups with lots of atheists, so a lot of it may just be having people with similar beliefs around you. I like the Unitarian Universalists myself because you have congregations you can join, but they're more welcoming to atheists such as myself.
    “This planet has - or rather had - a problem, which was this: most of the people living on it were unhappy for pretty much of the time. Many solutions were suggested for this problem, but most of these were largely concerned with the movement of small green pieces of paper, which was odd because on the whole it wasn't the small green pieces of paper that were unhappy.” ― Douglas Adams, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

    No, you're not special - and neither is 99.99% of the other people out there. The only people I think are special are those who contribute significantly to the welfare of others with no expectation of financial gain.
    Yeah, so self-esteem is evil. Perhaps this is why you get depressed lol....
