Topic: Logic and Faith | |
---|---|
A friend of mine, who is very unwell, prays to god, but she isn't religious. Many ill people like to have faith that somehow god will help them heal. Even if they're not religious. They must believe in SOMETHING, then, just not knowing exactly what. A spirit? Maybe? Could be! Native Americans often used spirits for help. Some use faith because they believe in souls so they are praying that their soul will find strength for hardtimes. Some use religion and there are literally hundreds of thousands of them in our world. Some use inner willpower and do not believe in a supernatural identity or spirit, ghost, soul, etc. The mind is a powerful instrument that can heal the body in many ways. It can also destroy it. How exactly? Scientists are working on conclusions, Guru's have their opinions, Pastors tell you it is a God, and Hindus say there are many. Buddhism believe in the wisdom of "The Awakened One" and use meditation. I wish your friend to find her bliss to be happy and well again. |

Logic and faith don't have to exist as polar opposites...but unfortunately almost always do.
