What I am saying is that faith is based on man's word,sometimes things can be obtained by one believing in something else rather than having enough faith to believe in themselves.And what some may obtain in believing in their God was nothing more than faith in themselves misplaced.
I have no qualms in anyones belief everyone should be able to enjoy their freedoms as long as it doesn't cause harm and theres no harm in civil discourse so no disrespect here understand that..
But no one knows God in the physical sense all we know is what we read ,,so in essence our beliefs are nothing more than a faith in what someone has written..And if what in some cases is written that God is a loving God then where's the harm in knowing his children personally and in the physical sense ..
But that too is just thoughts derived from what someone else has written..so the search for the truth will continue..and this discussion /debate ends like always in a draw..with neither side able to prove their point..nice civil debate..no disrespect or harsh words..perhaps a sign that intelligence does exist somewhere out there..tc..
