Got Faith?

Webster’s Desk Dictionary defines faith as “complete

confidence or trust.” The big question is, in what?

Most people seem to confuse religion with God. They think that by believing in a “revealed”
religion such as Christianity or Islam, they are putting their faith in God when in reality they’re
just putting their faith in the claims made by the “revealed” religion. Also, many people that
reject the “revealed” religions mistakenly believe they are rejecting God and that they’re atheists,
when in fact all they really are rejecting is the false and unreasonable claim of the “revealed”
religion to divine inspiration.

All three of the Big Three “revealed” religions, Judaism and its two off-shoots Christianity and
Islam, are based on unproven claims of mere men that God gave them revelations to put into
writing that make up the text of their various “holy” books. When you decide to follow any one
of these “revealed” religions, you’re only putting your faith in the claims these men have made,
you are not putting your faith in God.

An alternative to the “revealed” religions is Deism. Deism

is a natural religion/philosophy that rejects all of the
“holy” books of all of the various “revealed” religions and
instead bases its belief in God on the creation we see and
are a part of everyday. The Bible of the Deist is the
Creation itself! No man could have designed and created
the creation, yet any man could have written any and all of
the various “holy” books of the various “revealed”
religions!

If you would like to have your God-given reason align with your belief in God, if you’d like to be
able to think about God and learn about the Designer of Nature without having to suppress your
God-given reason, then Deism is for you!
