The Intersection of Faith and Doubt: finding common ground.

[XK9_Knight]

'What is your ultimate justification for treating other people the way you do?'

I'm a bit closed-minded regarding faith, but I suspect that all honest answers to this question will indicated that there is no real 'intersection' between faith and non-faith (sorry to edited you, but the phrase 'between faith and doubt' comes off as a bit prejudicial).

I think that’s an interesting choice of words; they have an edge to them. Does someone need to ‘justify’ being charitable or altruistic? I don’t think so, and I would consider myself as being those things (not that I wish to sound pompous). Correct me if I’m mistaken, but I think I may have come across as, “just another pretentious Christian,” no? I recognize I’m going against the grain joining a forum like this but my goal is to come along side fellows like yourself; thus the intersection of ‘faith and doubt.’

It’s good that you recognize how you can be “closed-minded” at times (we all can). What’s interesting is not what a man denies but what he accepts, and closing a door in one area means he’s open to another, and I want to find how to communicate with him through that opening. So far from being prejudicial, I’d like to build some “good faith.”

So, XK9_Knight. Since you're a football fan I have to ask.

Broncos or some lesser team?!?

… Broncos, BRAAAAWNCOOOS!?

PACKERS!
