Grand Nudger: i think you understand what i was trying to say, but i would think of your illustration as more like "faith flexing" (like muscle): how much lasting faith do you expect to develop in one sitting (furniture..that's maybe a few hours?). i believe faith grows, so the real faith is what you have when youre in a "relaxed state".
hello Peebo-Thuhlu,
my reason for being here is not to force a conclusion on anyone, but only to try to make sure people understand what they mean when they say that they dont believe in God. i think i have a question about your #2, but i'm short on time. i plan to check later though.
If I were to tell you that I don’t believe in Santa Claus, Bigfoot, or trickle-down economics, would you think I would have trouble understanding what I mean?
