Why your exsistence is more worthless than you previousy thought it was.

RE: Why your exsistence is more worthless than you previousy thought it was.
(February 11, 2014 at 8:32 am)Sword of Christ Wrote: It's still a faith if you can't be factually certain but you can't be factually certain that atheism is true either. You have a belief you have based on what you consider to be good reasons/arguments, what you feel to be true and whatever.

Congrats Sword: in your quest to annihilate the possibility of real communication by redefining words all over the place, you've now defined faith to mean "not factually certain." So awesome, we have faith in everything, without exception, bar a small set of axiomatic claims, because certainty is near impossible.

Of course, in that world, religions would still be operating under an especially bad variation of faith; we'd need a new word to describe the insufficiently supported kind of faith you have, versus the normal, factually supported faith normal people have.

Or, you could just be honest and use the real definition of faith. Rolleyes
