I will answer your question if you answer mine.
What does it even mean to throw God away? What does it even mean to throw Jesus away?
Lots of us have explained this to you many, many times over many years. But you don't seem to be terribly interested in the answer. Why not?
Is there an answer from us that you'd prefer to accept?
There are clues in your question of course, "throw god away". It's not like that. It's just a realisation that it was all only a story told to children. Nothing gets "thrown away". When that realisation occurs, the story remains but it's become just another story.
We've many times said it's like Father Christmas - it really is. If you can remember what that was like, then you've got it.
Why is that so hard to accept?
