The Church says that to be a fact, and I believe the Church.

Thus you take it on belief - by faith. Thank you.

I believe, yes, but what I believe is a factual and historical witness of the Church. Christ factually and historically was born of a virgin, died on the cross and rose again, redeemed our sins, installed the Church as a witness to that, sent us the Holy Ghost to guide us today, ascended into heaven, is present in the Holy Eucharist, will come again to judge the living and the dead, and His kingdom will be no end.

This is not a philosophy that I find agreeable, these are facts that are there no matter what I think of them.

Understand the difference?
