why not believe in God!

RE: why not believe in God!
umm your mixxing up your meanings of FAITH ... there are different definitions of "faith" ..from Dictionary.com
faith   
–noun
1. confidence or trust in a person or thing: faith in another's ability.
2. belief that is not based on proof: He had faith that the hypothesis would be substantiated by fact.
3. belief in god or in the doctrines or teachings of religion: the firm faith of the Pilgrims.
4. belief in anything, as a code of ethics, standards of merit, etc.: to be of the same faith with someone concerning honesty.
5. a system of religious belief: the Christian faith; the Jewish faith.
6. the obligation of loyalty or fidelity to a person, promise, engagement, etc.: Failure to appear would be breaking faith.
7. the observance of this obligation; fidelity to one's promise, oath, allegiance, etc.: He was the only one who proved his faith during our recent troubles.
8. Christian Theology . the trust in God and in His promises as made through Christ and the Scriptures by which humans are justified or saved.

So everyeonmay have some kind of faith but it is not of the religious sort as in 2,3,5 or 8.. The use of the word "faith" is an attempt to mislead based on the equivocation fallacy. So as an ATHEIST you may have "faith" but it has nothing to do with religion.......

Words have meaning and sometimes multiple meanings... THEY ARE NOT INTERCHANGEABLE... FOR EXAMPLE you can date a girl named Faith but you canot date "faith as outlined in def 2"

The same goes for Believe.....


CAN I GET AN AMEN... errr I mean thumbs up Smile
Did I make a good point? thumbs up Smile I cant help it I'm a Kudos whore. P.S. Jesus is a MYTH.
