Faith is nothing more than stupidity

[Taadow]

Such as?

Such as those prophecies in the book of Ezekiel, Psalms, Daniel and Revelation. Not to mention the affirmations of daily life I see in Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, Hebrews, The Corinthians letters, and the Gospel accounts.

you have faith your going to drive across a bridge and it wont collapse

you have faith your car is going to start

Those have nothing to do with faith, just a logical assessment of what's likely to happen.

Care to share any specific prophecies/affirmations?

Oh I see. So nothing tangible. And no cool stuff like,

living to be 900
2 of every animal species in a single boat, collected on the same day
parting bodies of water
talking animals
angels fukking humans and creating giants
God/Jesus actually conversing with people

Because there is PROBABLE evidence at least. Can't say the same about religious stuff. Nothing is probable in that realm, let alone conclusive.

That's what faith is.

Well I presume (note: I have "faith") you have access to a Bible, so you can access these on your own time.

But for now i'll share how I appreciate that the Book of Peter prophesied that you would ask this. 2 Peter 3:3,4.

Or maybe it's expected, since those amazing feats have been duplicated and witnessed countless times?

Oh I see. Another theist who can't give a straight answer when his beliefs are questioned.

You don't even know what my beliefs are, and I question whether or not you really care. So you don't deserve an awnser to your flippant question.

I have faith that reincar bounced this over here because his feelings were hurt.

 

[ugksam]

That's what faith is.

no it isn't

 

[Taadow]

no it isn't

Sure it is.

 

[ugksam]

Sure it is.

what is logical about faith? the entire concept isnt based in logic at all.

What is your evidence there is no God?

"Faith" is expectation you have based on what you've previously seen from something. That sounds exactly like "logic", doesn't it?

It seems like some of you hear the word "faith" and automatically think of one of the satelite definitions of it...
