Seun's opinion remains valid to him as long he's not enforcing it on anyone... And if I read well, he never imposed it on anyone. But, I'll really like to express why I see faith as a good quality, rather than a bad quality.


1. Faith is an appealing quality, one that all men should value highly. Many people today tend to undervalue faith, assuming that it means believing without any real proof or evidence. However, they are mistaken.


2. Faith is not gullibility; it is not a mere feeling; it is more than belief. Gullibility is dangerous. A mere feeling may come and go, and even belief is insufficient when it comes to Faith.


3. True faith is solidly grounded. Imagine that someone decided to give you a house. He might hand you the deed to the place and say, “Here is your new home.” Of course, he does not mean that you will live on that piece of paper; he means that the document is so legally binding that for all practical purposes, it is the house itself. Similarly, the evidence for faith should be so convincing, so strong, that it may be equated to our faith itself.

Op, Faith is as blind as justice when you face time.

In other words it bad and destructive, No now..... bros check am and balance am.

If you had malaria that has so weaken your bodily immune system and soon to die and then as a doctor, I tell you, I have a drug by science that would relief you in real time?

Would you keep having faith or take my drug?

Bro, you don't understand my write-up a bit.. What's faith? Taking the drug would have farther shown I have faith.. Please read point 1 and 2 carefully.

haibe:
U have a point tho.. but u dont realise we all have faith in one thing or the other.

You are VERY correct... that's probably why Nigeria is backward. When something becomes hopeless, you hear "With God, all things are possible"

1. We wanna play against brazil - With God all things are possible
2. You fell sick a week to your exam so know nothing - With God all things are possible
3. Some people create shitty apps but want to compete with companies like Fb and they still say - With God all things are possible

That kind of Faith to me is wrong faith

Weah96:
There are two different kinds of faith. The one to which you refer is the one based on common sense. When you walk into an upscale pharmacy to pick up your medicine, you have ostensibly placed your faith in the value the establishment.

However, there are good reasons to assume that you are purchasing an effective medicine.

The other type of faith is blind faith, the one where you believe a Jewish man from 2000 years ago is coming back to save you after resurrecting himself.

What are the good reasons to assume that you are purchsing an effective medicine? Consider the old woman's perspective which I gave earlier

You know that reliable pharmaceutical companies exist, you can confirm this with a Muslim. You know that people take medicine for illnesses around the world, again you can confirm this with Muslim or Buddhist.

You understand how the best medical systems work because you have used money before and know the value that we humans attach to it. So it makes sense that a hospital in Switzerland wont charge you 50k USD to repair an injure knee, and then give you pills made out of sugar for the postoperative pain. You might be wrong, but your decision was based on material evidence.

There is no precedent in life or nature to believe that a dead Jew ressurrected 2000 years ago, and is on his way to save you. What did you see in life that made you want to buy that claim from a vendor

For those who care to ask questions, not just questions but reasonable ones, you are free to go through the above. A wise saying once said, "the one replying to a matter without hearing the FACTS is FOOLISH" don't draw conclusions hurriedly, there are and would alway be 2 sides to every coin.

Like I said am like an open book, if you are willing to take your time to explain to me am more than willing to hear you believing we are all intelligent creatures.

Angrily throwing out a student because you feel the question he asked is stupid still doesn't solve the question he raised in the first place.

I stand to be corrected....

Thanks for the mention. Make I rake my seat read and digest then maybe comment.

Faith is not so hard to understand jare. It is an expectation of things to come. Why do you buy panadol or paracetamol for a headache? Is it not because you feel it will abate the ache? Why do you work from beginning of a month to the end? Is it not because you have faith in your employer to pay your salary, whether early or delayed?

Everyone has faith in one or two things. Ttis isn't about religion.

frank317:


Lol... faith is a word that can be misunderstood especially if u are a deliberately dishonest person..

Religious faith is clearly different from what u feel when u take drugs. If I take a brush to brush my teeth, do u think I am doing that because I have faith in the brush to clean my teeth? U see, going by ur logic, the worth faith would be greatly misunderstood.


U might choose to disagree, but I am of the opinion that when someone says faith is bad, he means faith that is dependent of mystical forces to come to his aid and dismissing deliberate human actions such as: taking drugs, working hard, thinking hard as secondary while believe in unknown forces as primary to survival or success..
