okay, it looks like we're becoming polarised with the christian faith as opposed to belief in general. while i see it can be good to believe in a god, that's not what i'm primarily asking. let's take scientists for instance. some believe the big bang theory, some believe that wasn't the beginning. and what about belief in self. we hear how language and the ability to solve problems make us different from animals, what about our ability for belief. we believe we can do great things and while some can most don't. for some reason we're taught to have belief in ourselves. let's take poets for instance, many believe that they're truly great poets... why, how do they come to that conclusion? is it belief that drives us,
