Faith and Belief

Ta-Wan

"You must have faith in God!"

"You only need to believe in Jesus to be saved!"

"You must have faith in there not being a God!"

"You only need to believe there is not Jesus!"

Just re-read those again:

We are often told that these statements on belief and faith

"You must have faith in God!"

"You only need to believe in Jesus to be saved!"

are worthy proofs, but if so then the following:

"You must have faith in there not being a God!"

"You only need to believe there is not Jesus!"

are equally worthy dis-proofs and so presented with Faith and Belief, religion's greatest "proofs", we can see them as entirely empty.

Most likely you did anyway. Yet given that, you'll find a thousand examples in microseconds by performing a simple web-search of people using their Faith or Belief as proof of their fictitious God's existence.

I have Faith and Belief in nothing but humans ability to lie to themselves.
