[Lucky DAWG]

It's not. All I want is to gain more knowledge and to see actually facts of this higher being.

I respect that because everyone does.



But by questioning other people all you will do is find more babble and more run around answers. Only you know the answer.

Questioning people is generally the best way not to end up completely misinformed and ignorant.

yea on just about every other topic.





But no matter how many facts and historical evidence you can find to reaffirm yourself, the core value is still faith no matter how little or how much you know.

the core value is still faith no matter how little or how much you know.

In Biblical Christianity (as authored by Christ) faith is worthless without subsequent action. In fact, the Bible says this..."What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not works? can faith save him?.....faith without works is dead....by works a man is justified, and not by faith only"

If one is a Christian(follower of Christ) they will ACT upon that faith they claim, NOT just expect their 'faith' to save them. Asking questions, seeking truth, studying are all part of that action. Ultimately 'WHAT YOU KNOW' will govern your actions....so in truth knowlege is important...and even more important is living up to what you know.
According to Scripture true knowlege is of God. Refusing knowlege is refusing God. Biblically, there is no way to separate faith from works and the subsequent knowledge that comes from those works.

I'm on the same page as you for the most part, i think you just are able to put it better then me, our denominational difference is just something that we won't see eye to eye on, but i respect that
