resolute?
Question: What's the purpose of a faith that is exchangeable, interchangeable, rearrangeable?....
Otra pregunta: Why do people have religion as part of their life? Especially in cases such as the one below (last post) where one would think that just letting go of said system of beliefs would make life, marriage, raising kids, etc. easier.
Prop 390 (vote yes!): People need that sense of security, or eternal security, assurance, or shall I say in cliché fashion 'life insurance' in order to have a peace about them.
Problem: The purpose of all religion is something bigger than oneself, thus conforming to its way of life. If this is not the case, then it is nothing. Here's the breakdown: if man creates the constituents, it's no different than him saying "I am god." Yes, there are some belief systems that allow this thought, but come on, that's just scary. Anyone who is honest with themself knows the condition of their heart, and God we humans are not. (of course there are religions that explain this too, but sadly these explanations can only bring temporary peace, requiring a cyclical lifestyle that offers no attainable escape)
Solution: God and His revelation. Seek it.
