Life without the LDS faith - easier or harder?

Have you ever had well meaning asshats saying life must be very hard after losing your faith?

I don't know how y'all feel, but for me it's been the absolute opposite.

As a TBM Molly Mormon, when I found I had a condition that meant I could never be a Mommy, I was devastated. I wasn't sure if I was being punished or tested. I thought I'd never find a husband as who would want someone who couldn't give them their forever family?

Now, as strange as it sounds, as a non-believer I can not only accept it but see the positives. I inherited a faulty chromosome from my Mom. Nobody's fault. No womb means no unplanned pregnancy, and it means no periods. The condition also means the sort of rack people pay 0000s for, a high sex drive, sweat that doesn't smell bad and a tight but firm vagina.

I know for a fact, had I still been a TBM dealing with cancer would have been a lot harder. As a non-believer I knew it was purely bad luck. A cell fucked up while dividing. Nobody was to blame, I was neither being tested nor punished, and if it had turned out to be terminal, and if death is really the end, well, wouldn't be much different to sleeping and I abaolutely love a lie in.

And the strict but silly rules we lived by? I'd have had to quickly marry my ex so we could satisfy our urges. Turned out he was a douchebag. If I'd had to stay married to the first guy I banged, life would be so shit.

Coffee, more money, not being an unpaid cleaner, being able to get a few extra piercings, nicer clothes, 2 piece bathing suits, swearing etc are also great bonuses.
