You're equivocating and deduce that I think that all type of faith must be good and that faith will lead to grasp the object of our desires.
No, I'm not. I'd suggest you go find a decent dictionary of philosophy, or at least a good listing of logical fallacies such as Nizkor, and look up "equivocation" before we continue the discussion. Matter of fact, I'm really going to insist upon it, because of the many different sorts of unintelligent people that irk me, the willfully ignorant irk me most.
Now go look it up and see how you misused the term in the sentence above. I'll wait.

You deduce that so you are wrong.
While you're at Nizkor, make sure you look up "strawman" too. The only thing that I've deduced so far is that you're not very bright, but have a lot of emotional energy invested in appearing so ("didn't think of that" really gives the last part away).

And the only thing I said is that you're equivocating different connotations of the word "faith". I'm pretty sure English is not your first language, so I can accept that you may not understand what I just wrote, but to put it simply, in English, a word can have more than one meaning, or multiple shadings of meanings.
I'm not going to carry this discussion any further until you look up and understand equivocation and strawman, so go on and get that out of the way, eh, kid?
You are a complete and total joke Thumpa.
1) First of all equivocating is not a word coming from the English language but a word coming from Latin
so to know some Latin is more useful than knowing English in this particular case.
And I did study a bit of Latin in my school days so I definitively know better than you the original meaning.
2) Before you pulled out one more rabbit from your magician hat the discussion was about the fact that you said that ............ I feel a lot freer since I left the cage of faith...........
My reply to your point was that basically nobody can stop have faith in something so your point
didn't make any sense.
After that you came up with different stories in order to defend your initial story.
That's all.
So there is no need for you to keep on pulling out more and more rabbits from your hat.
