But I don't have a lot of time so here's my most simplistic overview. (: : I believe 100% that my choice of faith is the right way. Overall I never stop believing in or being connected to my core beliefs(Christian). I may question them occasionally but that is part of growth and understanding.... : The strength of my faith comes in degrees. I view it as a pathway on which to learn and grow. Along that path there are moments when my faith is weak, due to my own imperfections and the human condition in general, and there are moments where it is quite strong when I have personal experiences where my beliefs are affirmed. : But even though there are ups and downs with the degree of faith, the overall push for me is to be on a steady incline to learn and grow stronger in it over time. This progress gives me satisfaction that I am doing the right thing. (of course this is easier to do in an organized religion where many books and programs have been installed to assist one along the journey) (: : Ex, you are just in open search mode right now. Eventually something spiritually will click and you will know it when you find it. (: Pretty much everything you have said is true for me also... i just think i have to accept the limits of human beings, but it's almost impossible to think like this (a limit is an end). I have a lot to learn, i know that 100% :)
