> ...if you've lost your faith?
Friends,
It is written here,[..How do you become a believer...if you've lost your faith?...]
I am unsure as to what the poster is wanting to mean as to becomming a believer for I do not know what the member wants to become a believer in or as to what faith it is that the member lost. If anyone can post here what their opinion is as to what is wanted to be believed and what faith is lost, then I could have the opportunity to respond accordingly.
Lou

look for the good in everything? Try working with kids... they can really be faith restoring because they're so honest and real. Maybe try finding a church that you like, if that's the kind of faith you're looking for...?

As I understand it not all religions make the same big deal over faith that the monotheistic ones do (Judaism excepted??).
There's a saying somewhere about finding a belief system that does not require you to believe five impossible things before breakfast.
Actually, I think that Catholicism here has become something like that, in the sense that they have ceased to find it crucial that they cannot sincerely say the Nicene Creed.
So my advice would be to find a religion that does not make such a big deal about faith, because religion is much more than faith.
I really doubt that Thai Buddhists care whether they believe or not.I read recently something along the lines of..... 'Atheism is a Christian heresy of the intellectually less subtle sort' ("Black Mass" by John Gray) which brought Richard Dawkins and Christopher Hitchens to mind.
This is the end of the thread.
