Wouldn’t it be nice if “having faith” was simply a matter of choosing what to believe?

Alas, life is not that easy.

It’s not enough to merely believe something.

It’s not even enough to believe in something.

The only authentic and dignified faith is a faith that stands for something.

  1. I try to keep an open mind, but I’m not even sure I know what that is, much less believe it. I recall over 20 years ago writing about trying to make up my mind about many things. That part of me will not change, but I don’t think the core me has ever changed much, for better or worse. Like Popeye, I am what I am and that’s all that I am. Been on both sides of the ethical (morality) fence in my time. Sometimes, I’ve noticed that the fence moved when I did not. Subjective?
