Do you believe in fairies? You can, I did… I don’t anymore. They were complete dicks to this girl I fell in love with… and something about flying and a pirate ship comes to mind quickly but fades away. A person can believe in anything they want. Ducks made every pair of shoes, ever. Jesus is the only true prophet. Muhammad is the only true prophet. George Carlin is six foot ten and fucking kills for fun. Lasers are angels masturbating. If you hit the light switch, the light will go on. And I could go on. Faith is rather meaningless until it does something.
If I believe in a giant lizard who rules the world and you believe in God and neither the lizard nor your God fellow ever show up, then it means nothing, correct? No, it means much more than that. Because God gave a person closure and happiness or a reason to hate his gay neighbors or protect them because they were being attacked by people who said they believed in the same God. Now that is truly a different purpose for one God or one belief but it means something. There are many uses of faith outside of religion and spirituality and they mean a good deal in this earthly world we sit on.
If a team of soccer players believed they were the best in the country, then hats off to them. I bet that makes them feel great and special. But if they can prove it, well than they get a trophy and fame and all the hooplah that country can muster! They can prove that belief and by believing so, they test their faith and they prove such faith as being real and worthy. They do not faultier when they lose a game because they still believe. Next games comes and they put a whooping on those cats. Such is because they still believed even in the face of defeat.
As Walter of the finest mice would have said, they kept moving forward.
So are all things a person is able to believe in kept up to test. Action is the word on this world’s diary and as much as the tone or character’s inner turmoil can be taken into account when the ink hits the parchment be only matter to faith is put into motion. Use your faith on yourself and keep it moving, huh?
