It’s interesting. There is a blog out there whose author claims to be an Orthodox rabbi who no longer believes in G-d. He says his agnosticism/atheism is psychologically liberating. I think that doubt is a big burden. At times it’s a necessary burden and even a worthwhile one; but a burden nonetheless. But I’m not sure that belief provides any more relief than does non-belief. Nor am I convinced that either one quantitatively resolves more conflicts/questions/doubts.
