God loves you and saves you from disaster, but if he kills thousands along the way (most of which are probably not Christian, so would likely go to hell anyway), well that's just part of his grand, noble plan. Idiotic humans... we need to stop being so goddamn naive.
Its intellectual suicide. Suicide is saying "this life isnt worth living". A leap of faith is saying the same thing as "this life isnt worth living, so therefore I will ignore reality and live in a fantasy world." It doesnt matter wether a god exists or not..having faith in a god is the exact same thing as suicide...it is intellectual suicide. These people are the walking dead...zombies...living in a world of faith and refusing cold, hard reality.
