I have an active faith

Gwynnite began with remember standing before the creator of the universe and accepting the title of prophet. And WTF is a prophet but a storyteller. This part of the story began with a walk to work at four in the morning.

When a random stuck a gun in my face and demanded my discman. There's another story connecting this CD player to my Gwynnies, but the point is that when I asked myself if I'm ready to die for a CD player, self said hell no, but Gwynnie got me that CD player, so fuck him.

So I chased a gunman off with a box cutter, and my Gwynnies. A test of faith I aced without realizing it was a test (It wasn't a test). Later I analysed the experience and noted that faith in god was unnecessary, what did the job was faith in my identity. That I am "I love my Gwynnies" and that is more than enough.

So the simulation of future acquires these experiences for further simulations. A conjecture is made, "Hold fast teh Gwynnies" in all boss fights for assured victory. Repeatedly and absurdly retested. 

But I got to thinking, this faith is something all humans share. The question is then why would I desire to label this aspect of simulation faith...

It's because of the feels, man.  Angel

I think the revealed religions get built up over time and individuals around these kernels of faith.
