Faith, Hope and Love - the pillars of destruction?
#1
Faith, Hope and Love - the pillars of destruction?
I am rather eager to see your views on the following:

Faith = ignorance
Hope = inaction
Love = obsession

Based on my observations of people's lives and my own, I have recently reached a conclusion that perhaps the famous triplet of values is indeed a sick trap for the body and spirit. By resorting to faith we refuse to apply reason. Hope does not only die last but may be the very cause of death as it implies refusal to take any action and settling on wishful thinking. Lastly, love may actually be a learned behaviour based on obsessive monogamy and jealousy rather than our true feelings.

I have also some up with a fresh set to offer a nice alternative:

Thinking - instead of blind faith
Action - instead of apathy
Sensuality - instead of obsession mixed with jealousy

Looking foward to any opinions on that.
