(I think) We all do the best we can guided by our beliefs, whatever they are.
I would describe religion as a set of rules. Faith is the choice we make about what we believeabout those rules and about life in general and how we will live it.
For example, I have cancer and no one medically speaking thinks I will survive. Yet I believe (have faith) there is a chance I may survive. Faith is the belief that something exists, though there appears to be no physical proof. Yet, I believe.
I would always want to pass this faith on to my children and when they become independent thinkers they can decide for themselves.
Soft breezes to you Shaun. Thanks for reading my post.
