Question: How can you create a belief that is based on faith !?
It seems to me that it is an oxymoron to have a set of beliefs that is based on faith in that belief!.
EG; I have faith , so I believe!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.I believe , so I have faith!.
I know they are Fantasy stories but still can't get my head around people still think there is a god that can strike them down and will come back to destroy everything!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Very true, a lot of people are too afraid to question their faith!. I truly believe that some people would rather believe in these fairy tales and fictional characters in their religions so that they don't have to face reality!. Ignorance is bliss as they say!. If you'd like a laugh, watch the new movie that just came out named "RELIGULOUS"!. It's sure to make some of those mindless sheep think about just how much time they've wasted praying and worshiping absolutely nothing!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Religion is an experience!. If you walk in a building and see a light, you believe the sun is shining!. if I walk in and the windows are dark, I believe it is night!. If you say you believe in UFOs, and I say that's a fantasy story, that doesn't change what YOU know to be true!.

So, you think religious faith is a fantasy!. You haven't had a religious experience!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
