Answer 1

I don't know but everyone he/she has own opinion.But i think that god do so many things for us and we don't even realise it.

Answer 2

The word faith originates from the latin fidus meaning 'trustworthy' and fidere meaning trust. In the English language, two principle meanings to the word faith are:
1. Confidence, reliance, trust. (In early use, only with reference to
religious objects).

2. Belief in the truth of the words contained in the scriptures of the
religious organisation to which one subscribes.


As you can see by these definitions, the word faith is considered a fundamental principle in the support of all religious devotion systems. If one does not have confidence, trust or belief in the truth of what is written, then historically the religion quickly falls. This has been shown many times throughout human history when worship towards a particular god or pantheon of gods falls upon the failure of either the religious texts or religious leaders to adequately explain.

Faith is, in essence the operation of assumed trust towards the truthfulness of religious doctrine. As we have previously discussed, assumptions may in many situations assist us in coping with the level of interaction of dealing with many people in our daily rituals ( i.e. assumed trust in the character of people around us). However, assumed trust in the face of important knowledge such as our origins, methods for living, which most religious doctrines profess, is an extremely dangerous practice. It also opens people up to losing their sense and ability to see things for what they are.

For example, if I tell you white is black and black is white and you believe me on assumed trust, then not only have you believed something that may have no basis of observable truth, but when putting this into practice, you change your sense of perspective. The mind altering nature of believing in things unproven and unsubstantiated has been shown to be one of the most effective means of mind control in human history. The more fantastic the story, so long as people are persuaded to believe it as being true, the harder it is to shake them from that faith.

So, in the end, I don't feel your on a winning argument here somehow...
