I guess with all that going on in the chatbox it be best to explain my belief in my belief.
Science cannot prove faith. It never will. Faith is literally faith. We can experience all the highs, sightings, excorisms and life changing experiencs but science will attribute it to something.
But i myself have not experienced a 'high' other religious have. However, that does not deter me from my faith at all. Faith is there to guide people on the path of righteousness and goodness. Not bullshitting mind you. Honestlty speaking, if faith wasn't there people would do all kinds of stuff they wouldn't normally do. They would be having casual sex, rapes, murder and all sorts of immoral things. Laws will never stop people from doing things they want. Accountability to a higher being however, does.
Getting back to topic, history can prove that religious events did occur. Whether it signifies the presence of a higher being is debatable to some. But really, why is it so hard to believe in a faith? If you do not believe in God, it means that you face oblivion after death. It means that you think that all the chaos in the world is random but not because God wants us to learn something from all this. Is it not easier and better to believe that after your mortal shell ceases to exist, you go to a better place? Is it not easier to believe that there's a person up there who cares for you, loves you and wants the best for you even though you may be the scum of the earth?
Faith may not be able to be proven, but it's a lot better than believing that the earth was created because of luck. We only exist because the earth is in a spot ideal for life; not too far from the sun, not too near to it either. Isn't it easier to believe that we were created for a purpose rather than the luck of the draw?
Ugh. Pardon me if the post is messy. 12 in the morning is not a good time to write a post of this intensity. I repeat myself, i do not get angry over discussions like this. I just like explaining.
Thanks to all the blogs i referred to (countless) for html code help :) (esp. cyn' and sixseven)
