This is not exactly right.

there ARE some things that are 'provable'.

Perhaps I should clarify, because you are right. I am not saying that it is devoid of facts. To take the simplest example, the City of Jerusalem exists.

What I am saying is that the things that make it religion- i.e., the existence of God, the truth about the resurrection- are believed on faith, not evidence.

I'm sorry, but there IS proof of the Resurrection.

Eyewitness accounts, written down, preserved for a long time.


Horrible deaths, which SHOULD have caused much recanting, if the facts were not true, were the end of many 'believers', who were THERE when it all started.

I guess my faith is not strong enough to believe that it all did NOT happen.

(Kinda like a holocaust denier, 2000 years from now....)
