If you say yes, which faith?
2007-10-31 06:15:51 · update #1
faith is a personal choice. You have to believe and you either do or you dont
I had no faith growing up because i was to worried about things that I could see and touch. "especially touch" (if u know what i mean) and that lifestyle consumes you and your spiritually dead.
however if you decide YOU WaNT TO KNOW what is so great about God and why those people seem so happy, (like I did) without a beer in one hand blunt in the other... YoU hAvE to mAkE a Decision to seek that power and find it with diligence and that hope that u get is faith, eagerly awaiting something invisible to help your soul and bring the best high EVER to your spirit........................... WOW sorry so long bro.... but that decision of faith will manifest many gifts as long as you believe with all your heart

Faith? The idea that something larger than you cares about your wellbeing? Well, that's sort of a blessing, though I'd say it comes from the Goddess.
What most people call faith, though, is actually gullibility. Having faith shouldn't mean ignoring the sense you were born with, or believing old fairy tales that have been mistranslated and rewritten for political purposes.

Faith to believe God is. There is common faith that everyone has that is not from God.

Yes, it is. If you read Romans 9 you will get a sight on that. And then there is this:
Romans 12:3
For by the grace given me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the measure of faith God has given you.

Faith can refer to a religion, or to belief in one or more deities...
Faith: ...To believe without reason:
Believing impulsively, or believing based upon social traditions or personal hopes.
Faith is being certain or what you hope for and sure of what you do not see. In either case, faith is based upon the interpretation of the intangible (feelings, emotions, etc.) instead of the physically tangible and is primarily associated with religion in modern times.
More sybolism to base your "facts" on.

There is no God watching you. Everything in your world, including your "faith" is your brain's interpretation of the world around it.

Faith is a way of denying scientific thinking and evidence.

IMHO, faith comes from inside. We have the ability to choose what we think and feel.
