While I'm not sure exactly how the question is being directed, this question is one which often presents itself during times of national crises or personal threat. When life appears stable and the nation well-protected and reasonably prosperous, people tend to be distracted by their own comparatively minor problems and goals. When tragedy strikes, however, people are reminded (or educated for the first time) on how uncertain and dangerous the world really is and they tend to run to sources of spiritual comfort for both safety (as in "God, please protect me") and also for meaning (perhaps something like "I've never really decided what I believe about life and I'm scared). Though this can be a positive by-product of tragedy, often times the opposite phenomenon occurs: once the fear fades and people are allowed to believe that they have control over their own lives, they may turn away from their inquiry into spiritual things and return to life as they knew it.
Lots of people answer questions on this site. Some of them profess the same faith in God as always, and others don't. When it comes to religious issues, there is always a diversity of opinion.
