I've only claimed to far what faith is exactly and that untill someone acquires proof on his own (on any subject) that faith is just as valid as anyone else's.

But it seems you know about different kinds of faith. I'd like to know what kinds there are, what they're called and hear some examples on what that means.

Just look at the definition of faith

faith (fth)
n.
1. Confident belief in the truth, value, or trustworthiness of a person, idea, or thing.
2. Belief that does not rest on logical proof or material evidence. See Synonyms at belief, trust.
3. Loyalty to a person or thing; allegiance: keeping faith with one's supporters.
4. often Faith Christianity The theological virtue defined as secure belief in God and a trusting acceptance of God's will.
5. The body of dogma of a religion: the Muslim faith.
6. A set of principles or beliefs.



If you won't accept that there are different definitions of faith then there isn't really any point in this discussion anymore.

Guys, I was reading the first pages and was truly impressed by the gentlemanly conduct as well as relevance of the posts. But the more and more I was reading, the further away people were getting away from the initial subject and bitting down on their bone harder & harder.

Religion is a delicate subject to debate that takes alot of effort by everyone involved. It's VERY easy to get emotional and say something that can be interpreted in a way that gets under someone's skin, so PLEASE use your best judgement to stay a true gentleman when posting.

The discussion are starting to ro round & round, let's not have it go down also....

Cheers !

Well, if the bickering keeps up, then that would be me, explaining why the thread was closed. You may or may not believe in God or the Young Earth, but in this little corner of the universe called 'SRP' you can always believe in me.

Bruno be praised!

Hail Bruno. (Pascal's wager)

Hail Bruno.

Gents I had fun. Thank you for letting me share my viewpoint on this. I'm stepping out of this discussion for now.

Fundimentalist come in all forms, Christian agnostic and atheist.... Christians seem to be fair game to pick on because of their tolerance and are still being slaughtered all over the world to this day. There are many scientists who are Christian and are anything but fundimental. Everyone needs to be treated with respect regardless of their cognitive abilities.
God reveals himself to all who look for Him, regardless of their thinking abilities.
Science attempts to explain reality, man is humbled when he figures out how little he knows. The most arrogant are often the ones who know the least.

how about this
