By the way and I don't expect you to believe what I will say, I am a theist based solely on reason because I can't have a blind faith, even if I want to Wink
But I usually had faith first in axioms (also in science) in order to check later, by applying them, if they are valid and useful in my life or not.

Naturally, the Will/Power which is behind my existence and I perceive in my being, happens to be totally different of all gods you might hear of; the gods that are accepted by certain communities in the world. In fact, the image of this Will/Power cannot be adopted/approved by any system/organization in the world. It may be discovered by free independent individuals only (if one felt the need to do it). And each of these individuals can take advantage of all what he would be able to discover from this image to better know his being and the real world he lives in. For instance, I couldn't meet yet one of these individuals but at least one person happened to agree with me openly on all what I discovered in this respect. Otherwise I would see myself as a real weird being Big Grin

Anyway, it is always not a prerequisite for a human being to know how and why he exists in order for him to live a normal life and be completely satisfied with the way his being is made.

I can't make sense of your ramble wrt to my post.

You are right.
I told you already that you will likely need to ignore my reply.
Answering: What is my point?
