Why pray, if you dont pray? I do not think that there is anything wrong with it. I remember when I first started to interact on forums, I felt like I needed to defend myself, and stand a ground of my truth. Not that you are doing this. I would let peoples words affect me to the core. I had to find my voice, and what I know to be true. Your shoe will not fit my foot. I havent seen your shoe, but I can bet that it is much larger than the shoes that I wear. ( I think?) Anyways, you are doing a fabulous job. If your feeling like you are being judged, maybe stay away from those individuals. We have enough to worry about in our lives. They can pray, and you don't have to.
