         I have a few questions.  I hope you can help.  Can people who
claim faith in God be considered irrational people?  Is the belief in
God a psychological disorder?  What is Faith?  How can the word faith
rationalize the belief in something incomprehensible (God).  I just
don't understand the whole religion thing.  I try...but it all seems so
very childish to me.  Weren't the people who thought up the idea of a
supreme being ignorant to their surroundings?  Am I to trust the word of
men and women who thought the earth was the center of the universe and
that the world was flat?  What do you think?



        Faith = Just because, that's why!

                My little sister says that allot
