[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What was not respectful of religion that's been said in the last few posts? Also, I don't see the leap of faith required to believe that justice includes gay marriage. It seems like an opinion to me. And I don't think you've pinpointed the leap of faith in religion -- is it the supernatural aspect, believing stories, dogma?[/quote] 16:24 here. That was my point exactly - justice including gay marriage is an opinion, not a belief. The leap of faith in religion is in believing in a higher power and, depending on your religion, in prophets and miracles. Faith is essential, because most people have not had direct experience with miracles or signs. What you call "dogma", or more respectfully the "tenets" of most religions, is different.[/quote] So are you saying that only religion can have "beliefs" (other beliefs are opinions) and that they require leaps of faith? I'm really trying to understand[/quote]
