Are you a skeptic? Or do you just like to think of yourself as one?

I'm a skeptic in the sense that I don't believe in certain things that a lot of other people believe in (religion for example). But I wouldn't necessarily label myself as a skeptic. The conclusions I've come to aren't based on any doubt or desire to rebel, but rather a sad understanding of our past and how we use stories to fill in gaps we could never understand.

I'm someone who wishes that religions were real, but accepts that I cannot pretend that they are.

I am a skeptic regarding the claims of organized Christendom.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
