I think Oprah said that because it was comforting to her and she thought it would be for others. I think it's fine to be an atheist, but one must understand one of the most important functions of faith: comfort. And I don't think these are times to be knocking comfort.

It is not my impression that Oprah embraces death and suffering, but looks to a "healing "if and after it happens.. Like we all do.. Just because a person does not use her way , it is very bad taste, IMO, to dis her way..

There is "no right way".. Everybody has to seek their own way to recovery.. And that includes taking bit and pieces of all spiritual and religious ways..
