Why is faith important?
RE: Why is faith important?
You'll probably want to keep that little tidbit about relative levels of closeness to yourself, at least in conversation with whatever female you con into spending any amount of time with you. It probably sounds nice to you, but it turns into the worst sort of declaration very quickly when faced with a hostile partner. What is it about feeling like a baby that has you enthralled? Was your father somehow deficient in your estimation, or to put it another way, what about having a father-god is so appealing?

You haven't been in contact with any spirits, evil or otherwise.

My opinion on whether or not people have had the chance to be saved diverges wildly. I don't think that anyone has ever had that opportunity, how could they? There's no-one around to do any "saving" of that kind...and it's even more nebulous as to what they're being saved from, or why they need to be saved from whatever it is anyway.

Finally found something I agree with you completely on, I don't think the worlds religions are a satanic conspiracy either, mostly because there's no satan to do any conspiring.

Your promises don't have much value to me, nor would your promises be any assurance of truth even if they did. "Jesus" would have required "self-something" to have made such a claim...confidence isn't the word I'd use.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
