[QUOTE="wolsty, post: 17937, member: 175166"] I don't agree that faith is synonymous with trust. Trust for one another is born of experience. We may come into this world trusting those around us, but experience soon teaches us that some are not worthy of it. Those who are to be trusted are normally equally obvious but usually fewer in number. Religious faith is belief without evidence; trust is a much more rational emotion. Perhaps we need more trust and less faith. We certainly need more evidence. :) :) :) [/QUOTE]
