In regards to faith
What is faith?: Faith, for religion's sake, is the fuel with which religion is able to continue. A way to counter doubt without providing a straight immediate answer. Faith is the IOU for the promise of a continuation of this thing called life; have faith and you’ll be rewarded with eternal life in a beautiful garden full of treats. It’s the promise that what we call life, our conscious self, continues on, either in paradise or a hellscape. Our consciousness; the self identity, the voice inside your head, the process of observation and experience, is a very funny thing that we are yet to truly understand, or even explain. And it is for that reason that we cannot see ourselves without it or come to terms with the fact that one day it just goes out forever. Death is not something that is easy to accept. We show it when our loved ones die, as it takes some time for some of us to accept that that person is truly gone. Some are better than others, and some carry the burden for man
