Will man ever move beyond blind faith to find a better place for the future??

That is my hope.  Unless we examine the mistakes within our belief system and find new and better ways of relating to the rest of the world, we won't be able to live in peace and harmony.  Let's hope it will happen soon.

I agree that the road you've laid out is definitly the path we are on, however no, I don't think anyone particularly wants that.  Good think I live close to the moutains, so I can just go and hide when the time comes..... Seeing how we live in a society where the rich get richer and poor get poorer, how can we not be headed down that path???

Yes, and the world is that asylum.  It takes great effort and discipline to cure yourself of the delusion of faith.

Before you decide, ponder on the following Quote\n\n"for What shall a man gain if he gains the whole world and looses his soul!!"

Listen to that 'quiet small voice' .... follow your hearts desire....\n(I also lived iinthe East prior to relocating to New Mexico) I have taken that 'leap of faith' followed that calling in my life.  Yes I will continue to listen to that small voice and hear the calls.

Take a good look at the world.  100 years ago it was a completely different earth than the one we currently occupy.  Sex and violence have replaced morality, and it's only going to get worse over time.  If I had to live without faith that the earth would be restored and that justice would prevail in the end, I wouldn't want to wake up in the morning.  My faith keeps me going in the face of adversity, and that is enough for me.

Absolutely!!! With more love amongst the world communities would come tolerance & respect for one another & one another's culture, belief, religion ect. Such an atmosphere would break down the many walls of colour, creed,religion, narrow mindedness we have built over many a centuries amongst ourselves distancing ourselves in the process & make the world a better place to inhabit.

God's will and plans exceed the capacity of human understanding. It is possible that everyone lives forever, but the Bible does not say this. One thing is for sure, faith in Jesus's love and forgiveness WILL make your existence in this life easier, it WILL help with the burdens that come to us in this sinful world easier to bear. It WILL give you hope for a better life after this one.

No. You can do what you want, but  work an study a lot is the best guarantee. Don't look at the sky for your progress in life.

Well this belief is rooted in the hope that tommorow will be much better than today as time goes on man likes to believe that he is learning from the past to make for a better future also the knowledge that will exist tomorrow will be much more comprehensive and thus shorten the margin of error. Unfortunantely this has not always been the case in current history.

It is this time out that has enabled you to see more clearly.  \n\nStillness will settle and clear the most murky water.\n\nMaybe it's time to ditch religion and enter the real world...

Yes, I understand what you are saying. Keep your faith and listen to your heart. No-one on Earth can predict the future, we are in God's hands.

You make an excellent point. Those of us that believe know that one day we will see a better more perfect place without the hatred and violence. It's called having faith and hope.

To get to the other side?

Child of God, yes -- if we could all learn to think of each other with hearts filled with kindness, compassion, and understanding -- this world would be a much better place.\n\nDo I believe that WE can make that happen?  No.  Because evil and hatred are very real, and we can't defeat them by ourselves.\n\nIt doesn't mean, though, that we should give up trying.  Perhaps each of us can make "our little corner of the world" a little better by treating each other with courtesy and respect.  Peace !
