If faith works how every religion says it works......
#34
RE: If faith works how every religion says it works......
Can someone explain to me why, in every other facet of your life, having blind faith is considered to be unwise, but when it comes to having blind faith about an invisible, omniscient deity, blind faith is considered to be a virtue?

I have faith that the guy I found standing on a street corner knows how to fix my leaking gas oven.

STUPID!

I have faith that the homeless guy I've picked up and taken into my home is merely down on his luck, and that I can help him get back on his feet!

IDIOT!

I have faith that there is an invisible, benevolent god who sees what I do every second of my life, and that he loves me!

<APPLAUSE>
Science flies us to the moon and stars. Religion flies us into buildings.

God allowed 200,000 people to die in an earthquake. So what makes you think he cares about YOUR problems?
