Faith, as it is being discussed here, is not serious evidence of
anything beyond belief.

No sir. Faith is much more than a belief. That's why I know I don't
have it, nor do you. But, I see serious evidence of it's existence
in others every day.

I don't give a damn if the "faithful" believe in the easter bunny, santa
claus, jesus or punxsutawney phil. The problems arise when such
believers try to force their "faith" and their religiously based beliefs
onto non-believers or those who believe differently. That is happening
with increasing frequency and nastiness in this country.

This last paragraph is simply something you believe.
Keep it up. These sessions do you so much good! ;-)



It's not "simply something" I believe. There is plenty of factual,
undeniable evidence that "the religious" are working diligently to force
their religiously based beliefs onto society.

Oh, and the "fact" that you see "serious evidence" of faith in others
does not mean there is anything to that "faith" beyond faith itself.
It's easy enough to "believe" via faith in a creator. Let's see some
proof of a creator's existence, beyond the faith that there is one.
