Actually you're partly right. Truly religious people figureatively and sometimes literally give their lives over to God to manage where they go and what they do. So in a small way, they don't "handle" their lives alone.

As for being alone, I don't follow that. It's obvious you don't believe in God and as such HOW can someone BE with God (i.e. not be "alone") IF, according to you, he doesn't exist?????
