For you. If I took people's word for it and took baseless assertions on faith alone, no matter how extraordinary the claim may be, I'd believe anything! And that's the path of a deluded fool.
Principles and the requirement of evidence is what allows me to separate fact from fiction. Fantasy from reality. So I can see what's true or not. Science is a method, a tool to open up the unknown and learn. With the application of testability, observation, verification. If a claim cannot be backed up in any rational way, it is useless to me.
So feel free to believe in spirits and all that shite, but I won't. I'll stick to my principles, you stick to your faith.
My mind may be in the clouds yet my foot is firmly on the ground and many of my world class achievement and road records will speak for its self.
I have faith like you do, in up, down, sideways and so on. As far as faith for any Super Daddy or any ego group, little. Although do learn and share things from every group.
Love and play most of the time, childlike, never harmed anyone, now, that would be foolish. Taxes are sometimes a drag YET Fantasy is a fun part of life. I love many good books and art forms of good fantasy, being an artist. I receive many fine metaphor from many films and books like in Wizard of Oz which has less sex and violent than the bible.
Most of my work is educational art or entertainment; it drags many of those zombies out from their drugged out TV watching that goes on for 30 hours of a week.
