depends on the thing I was believing... I would be happy if a fear I had turned out to be false, but i would feel startled if a hope i had turned out to be false....

It depends. Did you stop believing what you believed because others were threatened by what you believed? If you're talking about believing in God and believing in the blood of Jesus Christ then you really have to consider the fact that he was beaten, spit on, whipped with strips of leather that had pieces of iron and bone tied to their ends, and then hung on a cross with nails through his hands and feet, all because he threatened the status quo of those in power of the day. Who do you see in power today? Not the puppet clowns I mean, who do you think is behind the injustice of today? Who controls the media? Who feels threatened by the concept of coming judgment? Whose best interest is served in denying that there is a good and faithful God?

Depends on what the lie was. Perhaps I was told I had cancer and believed it. Later on it turns out the doctors were wrong.

I felt brainwashed and concluded that almost everything I believed was probably a lie, as well, and started looking for answers on my own. It's better this way.

I recently found out that the man I thought all my life was my father, was actually not biologically related to me.
I felt numb, really. >_>
But then I have a lot of other stuff in my head and it was the last thing I needed to hear!
But if you mean like Santa and the tooth fairy? That was depressing. Oh yeah. ;_;
Lol. :o)

It's sad how people are teaching their children in things that are not real. I was not raised like that and didn't raise my children as so. My husband was and although he is now a christian he has a hard time. His daughter who is now 15 is still convinced other wise, she believes in everything... Santa clause, Easter bunny, angels, demons, devil, God, Jesus, you name it. Sad!
God is very, very, real. I'd rather trust in Him and stand for what is in the end than stand for nothing and be sorry in the end.
God bless you.<><

I felt betrayed.
It was a relationship, my father, deserting our family.
The impact on my life, and my family's lives, is still seen to this day. His actions were, and are, completely selfish. No support for his family emotionally, financially, etc. He is an example, in my view, of the problems with our selfish, humanistic culture.

Betrayed
Assuming I though it was a good thing.
If I thought a cop was following me to give me a ticket, and he zoomed on past, I've been relieved and happy.
But I don't think that's the question you're asking

unless I am sure of something, I always allow for the possibility that it might not be true
like thinking in probabilities, like 50% sure of some things
99% sure of others, depending on what I observe, who told me and how honest they are, and also how well the info fits with what I already know

You would feel bad.
But, I found it the other way around, I doubted my faith for over 20 years, studied and found it to be true.
You cannot imagine the Joy, even for an old man!
Peace and God Bless!
