Okay.. on my lunch break I started down some random train of thought so you lovely people get to talk about it with me, ok? :o)
I started thinking about how my fiance believes in God because that is how he was raised by his parents and grandparents. He's never read the Bible. He knows some scripture, but only what has been singled out by his parents to illustrate certain aspects of the religion for him.
Okay, so, here's the thing. I tend to think his beliefs are rather ridiculous, but then I started thinking that the only reason why he believes such things is because he was taught them by people he considers trustworthy and credible (his parents). He trusts their opinion over mine, so I am pretty darn sure he is going to believe these things until the day he dies.
Can I really fault him for that? How much have you believed in your life because someone you heard it from someone you trusted to know/tell you the truth?
