I lose my faith in humanity on a weekly basis, but I keep my face off the Post Office walls.

Do you really think your sense of morality comes from a belief in God?. Would you really go out and murder, rape and rob if you discovered that the God of the Bible was all a myth? Of course not! Deep down, you know that the Golden Rule is simply common sense; it is the only viable way to be a part of society and to have a life worth living. We are not punished for our sins, we are punished by our sins.
Look in your community: are your local gangbangers a bunch of atheists? Generally not. Many of them sport gold crosses! Look at the world: those states/countries with high religious faith often have high crime rates (e.g., Mexico, Iraq, Afganistan, USA). Countries with low religious faith (e.g., Sweden, Denmark) have very low crime rates. Read the Bible: could the God that exhorts his people to commit ethnic genocide, rape, slavery and capital punishment for trivial offenses really be the source of our morality? OK, the message of Jesus outlines a beautiful moral philosophy that we should all follow. But which ethnic/religious group in the USA is least represented on the wall of the post office? The Jews!

Wow what an odd question, makes me hope you medicated, or think you are self medicating. Now to the question, If I lost my faith you would likely see a picture of me at the post, heck for that matter lots of government agencies, as I would most likely go on some sort rampage and end up on some agencies top ten list.

In this contemporary age,only those who find their faith are considered criminal and thereby candidates for a post office photo... Ok,so I'm a drama queen...There is an element of truth,none the less.

I'd check the lost and found. I don't think it would break the law and have to be on the wall of the post office.

Statistically you're much more likely to find many Christian's pictures on the post office wall or shooting co-workers within.

If you lose your purse, can we expect to see your picture at the local post office?

I don't know, is the Bush administration planning on going after people who lose their faith ?
Have the Dominionists taken over already ?

Since I'm a master of disguise, I could fill a whole wall with the various pictures they would take of me.

Well a lot of people lose their faith and I don't see the crime rate going up because of it.
Can't remember ever hearing a criminal state that he/she committed a crime because they lost their faith.
