Anyone see the south park where the priest went to the vatican, and all the parents decided to become athiests? I know, I'll become an atheist! Yeah, me Too. Yeah, lets kill god! Um... lets just become athiests. *pause* Same thing.
I am not a, "Christian", either. It is nothing more than an institution. Religion is of man, faith is of God.
so, if i have faith in my ability to destroy the world with a single thought, does that mean i really have that ability? & is it of god as you say? people had faith in a flat world & had faith that the sun revolved around the earth, & had faith in the practice of drilling holes in peoples heads to release demons..
my point just was...faith doesnt make things real does it..you had faith in santa clause & the easter bunny & monstors in the closet, but can you use that faith as proof those things exist?
faith in rosalyn sanchez pulling up with a limo and whisking me off to ponce to be her drug-wine stuard and love slave hasnt hastened its happening ....anyhoo thats my religion and im sticking to it !
your missing the point, as epiphany said, faith is god. You said youself in my cancer thread that you need to believe you can overcome it to be able, a perfect example.
oh that i can appreciate, but she said faith is of god..well its all just words anyways but what i was talking about there is if ya just gave ip you lose the battle but if u had faith in getting better your chances improve..wasnt imlying it would definately save ya..just that it helps
