Religion: Real or Fake

[Kidlicious]

Ok, it's a declaration of Luke's faith. (Which he followed blindly) So what.

No that's Jesus stating his mission on earth.

You believe in Jesus/God based on Faith, correct?
And you have no proof that God exists, so I consider that blind Faith.
You can call it whatever you like. I'll call it what I like.

If mean blind, as in ignorant, I don't follow you.

[rah]

Blind as in no proof. Ignorant is stretching it a bit.
But again, IMO faith = follow blindly. Others are entitled to different opinions.

[Robert]

I've always equated faith with "follow blindly"

That's a blind assumption. No pun intended.

So everything that goes without proof is 'blind'.
That's ridiculous. There's a lot of space between following something 'blindly' and knowing something full proof.

I have a lot of doubts about my believe in God. I am in a continuing debate with myself. There are strong reasons for me to not believe it and there are strong reasons for me to do believe it. Both rationally and emotionally. Sometimes I'm very skeptic about and sometimes I'm impressed by the Bible.

And then you come by hardly knowing me, but able to judge that I'm having blind faith. Well, that's not very impressing. It's quite ridiculous though.

And to be honest, I have a lot of trusts and opinions in life. About liberty and capitalism, about trusting friends doing business. Most of them are without 100% proof. So am I having blind political ideas, blind friendly relationships and am I doing business and my job blindly as well?

I considered that--and this bozo strikes me as more obviously DL than Argus--but I'm not sure what "point" he'd be trying to make by this, since he didn't believe in God himself. A clumsy, not terribly lucid "discussion" of theism under the guise of open-mindedness seems more the type of strawman a theist would deploy. The name "Sting Chameleon" is obvious, but I figured this was someone like Kid trying to be clever, not Drinksnacks. But it could be that Drixy was just feeling spiteful and wanted to start a dumb controversy.

I googled a string of the text, and the same thing was posted on a bodybuilding forum. Hence my conclusion.

Probably, yes.

Okay, so our candidates are Drixy and Alpha Protocol. Er, assuming those two are not, in fact, the same person.

[DaShi]

All this hoopla over a guy who made one post. If it is Drix, he's run away with his tail between his legs again.

[Provost Harrison]

I think we identified that that guy had no tail

Please prepare yourself to stand corrected, good dear kind sir. And never, ever, dare doubt me again! Je suis le dauphine.

I expect him to comment on my post

You can discuss this here, or you could read some of the better philosophical works or writings on the subject. You will gain more by the latter.
