My faith is built upon my love for God and my neighbor and myself and do not do to another that which I would not want done to me.
My faith is not about my becoming perfect but about trusting God to help me find the way in times of worry and distress and to seek guidance for my daily decisions. I look at hard working people at church and feel inadequate actually because I am lazy but just not able to do what I used to do. I believe that God says "You ARE doing what you are meant to do just doing the simple things you do for others; like visiting or phoning or writing.
The problem is when faith becomes an idolatry of reason, which is all about belief and dogma.
I read the Bible as myths, legends, parables and unbelievable tales within which are important lessons to teach us the value of life.
