What do you believe?

[Malcolm Buggeridge]

I think we can all agree that a propensity for belief in the divine, the
supernatural, call it what you may is becoming increasingly frowned upon
in today's modern secular society.

I'm not particularly religious although I am a regular church goer and
am often to be seen in the lytchett gate hobnobbing it with the vicar
after he's deklivered a particularly thought provoking sermon.

I do, however concede, that I attend church more to maintain my social
standing in the village rather than to fulfil any spiritual obligations set out by Christian doctrine.

That said, I do believe in spririt and I do believe in angels and I often feel there is a spirit guardian watching over me as I wend my way
through life.

The militant secularism on display in modern Britain doesn't rest easy
with me. *I often wonder how those recently bereaved feel when they are
belittled by the likes of Richard Dawkins just because they seek comfort in the belief that their loved one has gone on to a better place.

I also think there are more people in Britain with spiritual beliefs
than the media would have you believe. *They may not follow any
prescribed religion but the desire to satisfy a spritual yearning is
evidenced by the growth of adherents of diciplines such as Kabbalah and
Buddhism.

So, where do you fit into the spectrum of faith?

I have faith in my belief that you are a particularly tedious sockie.

[SupremeSpod]

I believe that what I believe is **** all to do with you or anyone else.

How's that?

[EternalOptimist]

You are inconsistant.
The title talks about belief, the last line talks about faith.
These are not the same thing

apart from that, a good effort. well done

A little churlish perhaps.

Now if everyone could take this view the world would be a much happier place

On the matter of religion I had the Jehovah’s turn up the other day: I mentioned that I now require regular blood transfusions, they responded “its gods will for you to join him them” oh..right then..

[darmstadt]

I believe that if I stare long enough out of the window that the woman across the road will one day forget to pull her curtains before getting undressed.

hobnobbing it with the vicar

[MyUserName]

I am an atheist an attend church on most Sundays because my wife wants to go with the kids but cannot attend the ceremony and watch them at the same time so I play with the children and day dream when they are in their groups and she keenly listens to the confirmation bias, argument from ingnorance, no true Scotsman and assorted other falacies.
