do religious people really believe?
#15
RE: do religious people really believe?
Quote:Of course. Without doubt I wouldn't need faith.

Frodo just by saying this you strike me as someone who doesnt really believe in god yourself.

In what other decision making process in deciding what to believe would anyone use this logic?

If you had a house built for you and someone asked you "do you think the builders did a good job, the house looks dangerous" i doubt anyone would say "well if i didnt have my doubts about the builders i wouldnt need to have faith in the builders"
Why do you have faith just to combat doubt? and why is there a need for the faith to be there? surely you have the faith based on a decision you dont just have the faith there for the sole purpose of defeating the doubt.


Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.

Impersonation is treason.
