Default The Empire Crumbles: More American Buffoonery

For someone who bases everything on fact you sure leave your self dangling
with lots of hope...good luck with that.


That's pretty much a definition of *faith.* Are you implying that you never
do anything on faith? Do you take risks? Or do you live such a monastic
(definition #2) lifestyle that nothing can bring harm to you?

Quite the opposite. The post however was focused towards Neil who forever
quotes and stands behind "fact" yet seems to be able to go baseless into gut
feelings, the realm of god and heaven. Pure faith. No Fact. He is an enigma.

There is little or no fact where religion is concerned. Only faith. If
you're waiting for a Christian to provide evidence (facts) of God, you're in
for a long wait. But you are of course right--to a Christian, his belief
*is* fact. That's part and parcel of the faith business.
