And I have never met anyone who I would consider to be a person of faith...if they didn't.
If you toss out Adam, then everything else is meaningless, and what you have left is nothing more than a security blanket, rather than faith.
Faith is so much more than mere belief [for belief's sake] it is an awareness that is profound, an experience that can never be put into words, and a realization that it is not you who need God, but it is God who needs you.
This is the reason why pride is the greatest stumbling block to faith.
