"This idea that good things happen to good people. That there's magic in the world. Too many good people suffer for that to be true. Too many prayers go unanswered. And every day it just gets worse. Every day we ignore how truly broken this world is, and we tell ourselves it's all going to be okay. But it's not okay. And once you know that, there's no going back. There's no magic in the world... at least not today there isn't...."

Sometimes bad things happen to good people…. what would you do without your "world"?

I prefer reality to escapist fantasies, magic, farie stories and other mass cultural delusions you care to list.
If it's to be it's up to me. I deal with what I can change.

I dont think you read the post; it has nothing to do with religion : the question "is Sometimes bad things happen to good people…. what would you do without your "world"?"

or , to clarify, How behavior originates from the notion of human nature, or more specifically, that behavior is largely caused by someone's immediate environment. What is human nature, and does it exist?

i can understand yer point... even if you are wrong.
i have been a homeless drug user. no job no future.
i learned the hard way what the word "FAITH" truley means.
anyone can say they have faith when things are going well.
the magic of faith is when you see every tiny miracle around you as an inspiration. every little act of kindness as your future way of treating all living things.
bad things do happen to good people, and bad people.
the good people are the ones who get stronger and grow from it.
the symbol of the phoenix has proven to be my inspiration to pull myself up from any adversity.
