It reminds me of the quip: I have complete faith that jumping off the roof won’t kill me. I’m not sure I can say the same about hitting the ground.

Of course they shouldn’t be “privileged” because of a “label of faith!”

I for one feel like I’m in the Dark Ages when I discuss this issue.

“Faith” should not be privileged, condoned, liked, spoken, or in the dictionary. But since I’ve been unsuccessful in its eradication, look it up, and split the definition in two:
1. a belief without proof or evidence
2. what a person believes

Make sure when speaking to the faithful that they know which definition it is that you are (hopefully) maligning. So often they confuse themselves by using both definitions interchangeably; and they mean one and I mean the other.

Aw, hell, just rip it out of the dictionary and save yourself a bit on toiletpaper expenditures.

Now, suppose you do make it. Does your faith deserve any credit or is it more likely that the drivers decided against folding their cars around you or that you were just simply lucky?

Because, until someone, somewhere somehow manages to make a simple demonstration that they are real, there is no proof, just delusion.

And no, cryptic contradictory messages in a bronze age compilation of scripts does not constitute evidence.

So, take your argument one step further. I agree, in this definition, that we all have faith in road crossings. What faith are you advocating, and what is your proof?

Some use the words: faith, christain, rightious & religious rather loosely.

part of a sensible comment. However how can you be sure that your interpretation of the above is the right one? maybe you are playing fast and loose with the true meanings.

Holy – you missed the memo. The Pope is infallible.

Actually it depends on what he’s sitting on at the time So we know what he sits on most of the time.

As is often said, I’ll stop making fun of your ideas as soon as you stop having funny ideas.

Classic, I will be stealing that one loads (don’t expect a credit though )

Apparently Iran doesn’t agree with the quote as they are jailing and planning to execute people for “waging war against god”. The sooner their people overthrow their gov’t the better. What a bunch of lunatics.
