I agree I've only known a few people of true faith who really lived what they believed.<BR/><BR/>What's interesting is even back a few hundred years ago, they were looking at faith as a wager - like Pascal who said it is to his advantage to believe, because what does he have to lose in believing? If you don't believe and it turns out to be true you lose everything. <BR/><BR/>My problem is I've never been able to have that willing suspension of disbelief that allows true faith to happen. But that doesn't mean I don't believe in the morals that religion teaches and try to live by them. I don't think you need to truly believe in God or an afterlife to know what the right thing is to do. I may not always do it, but I know what I should do.Mauigirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15529827915262851910noreply@blogger.com
