Faith isn't Spiritual.

[postroad]

Faith is carefully constructed through indoctrination and social structures within the believers.

It simply doesn't exist apart from that.

It is so fragile that individuals such as myself must be excluded from this process whenever it is possible for it to be done so.

Please back up these claims with evidence.

I am the evidence. Do you think Christian institutions would allow someone like myself to cross examine the indoctrination process from within?

Peace to you,

Faith is carefully constructed through indoctrination and social structures within the believers.

You are talking more about religion.

Religion and faith are not the same thing.

Faith comes from God (and is based upon what hears, from God and in the spirit).

It simply doesn't exist apart from that.

Just one person who has faith without this "religious indoctrination or social structures" is evidence that faith (in God and in His Son) does indeed exist apart from that.

It is so fragile that individuals such as myself must be excluded from this process whenever it is possible for it to be done so.

I do not know what this means. Unless you are referring to a religion that has excluded you (religion does do things that) how have you been excluded from faith?




Peace to you!

This has been moved to random ramblings. If it's not deemed worthy of debate I'm not participating further.

Peace to you postroad,

It's in random ramblings because you don't have a question for debate.
