Is faith a Mental Disease?
#16
RE: Is faith a Mental Disease?
I think it can become a disease but it can also be a tremendous tool to help an individual develop a sense of self-worth in a world where self-assertion has its own standard of fitness.

As Shakespeare said, "All the world's a stage, And all the men and women merely players."

Faith at its core inspires individual conduct to a higher measure where the fruits of such effort can be sociologically gauged. It can also be used to gauge its own ineffectuality and in a past age it worked its wonderful magic forcibly dragging those dregs of vestigial animality; human impostors out of their dungeons and cellars and into the light of day.

Now, however, that faith is rapidly, if not already, a deteriorating sickness that must needs be elevated or transformed into an image more becoming of modernity and brotherly cooperation. Good Orderly Direction is beckoning.
