For me if some one tells me you must have faith , Thats the same as some one saying TRUST ME well we all know what happens when you trust some one,
so they use the word FAITH,to sell the 1500 year old story they brain washed the world with.
If your going to have FAITH in a story ,god also said It's your obligation to question EVERYTHING. so what's it gonna be?

I question everything, and I have faith. True faith does not come from blindly believing what you're told. That's a combination of stupidity and brainwashing. Rather, faith only really exists when you've questioned your religion thoroughly and still believe in it - for your own reasons, not someone else's.

Hmm...that is a tough question to answer...Faith has more meaning and more depth to it than just saying trust me. The word Faith is Holy. Asking Questions is part of having Faith. Questions and Answers are the key to knowledge, but Faith is knowing without Question.

Faith is worthless. We know this by the trivial observation that it is possible to have faith in two mutually exclusive beliefs and without reason or evidence there is absolutely no way to distinguish the true belief from the false one. Therefore faith is of no use at all.

I have faith. But look, we ALL have faith in something. Faith in the belief we are right, faith in the religion we choose, and YES, even atheists have faith they are right, they have faith there is no God.
Anything that has no 100% hardcore, evidence of proof, or no proof, requires faith.

I make an attempt to squash it everytime I discover a preconception I haven't yet challenged.
No faith, know peace.

Instead of faith and hope, I prefer trust and knowing.
More powerful.

I trust totally in God and that Jesus is my Lord and saviour. It is a choice and if you choose not to believe it...its ok with me. Have a great day.
The job (if one could call it that) of a believer in Jesus is to present His story. What another person does with that presentation is totally up to them.

"There is a door beyond understanding, beyond belief,
before the daylight,and before the dawn; this is the door to faith.
The serenity of believing that which cannot be believed;
knowing that which is unknown, and trusting the universe to show us the way."

faith is that belief that God doesn't lie. That His Word is true.
