That you don't believe in Zeus is faith. That I don't believe in Zeus is faith. If one of us believed in Zeus it would be faith. That you don't believe in God is faith. My belief in God is faith.
Faith is the belief in things unseen, according to Scripture. For the sake of this discussion, I'd say the belief in things that can't be measured is faith.
I simply do not hold belief in things for which I have seen no evidence, and thus far your god falls into the category of "things for which I have seen no evidence".
Fair enough. But God's existence and what His will is are the most important questions one faces. How one answers that question, however, is intensly personal and I'd have it no other way.
There is a social aspect to this which is the reason I don't feel compelled to debate it -- rather than merely witness.
A few posts back I set RWP off when I asked if atheist/anybody had a purpose in response to a situation he posited.
Our rights our inherent to an axiomatic belief they come from a Creator. I am as certain as I am of God's existence that if you change this axiom our rights go away.
You wouldn't like it if I made comments about you regarding beliefs that you don't hold.
You're right, I wouldn't. I apologize.
