Faith

Posted on | October 5, 2004 | No Comments

Faith is an interesting topic to explore. You can put your faith in all sorts of things. People, inanimate objects, groups of people, the unknown, the unseen all require faith at times; there is even a leap of faith towards the things we want to believe in…

The simplest form of Faith is in objects. We do this with such simplicity that it is done unconsciously and without question most of the time. FaithWe have faith that our car will start in the morning, that the rope will hold as we climb up a wall, that the ladder will hold, the boat will stay a float and the plane will fly us to our destination. We occasionally question these objects, but typically we use faith in our judgment calls to move forward with action.

Faith in the unknown is a harder subject and should be talked about later, as religion is the root of this and the cause for debate lasting hundreds of thousands of years. So to lead to the next faith, I use a religious leader to step into faith of people.
