If you have a faith, and that faith locks you into a
position, and you have disdain for those whom do not share your faith. Then I'd have to say that is at the very least a bit closed minded. I would be happy to share my many reasons why I find the whole faith thing so difficult.

For instance when I read the bible (yeas I've read it) and I read in the begining God created the Angels and of all the Angels Satan was the best, and God's favorite. Then for some odd reason Satan decides to rebel, and a host of Angels decides to follow Satan (mind you these being have no trouble with faith..they don't need it, for they know and see a God right there in front of them) So Satan and company try to dethrone God...I'd say "KILL" him. Satan looses and get's his very own kingdom in the process and the change to later influence God's next creation Man. Now after the rebelion God rewards his loyal Angels by removing their Free Will. OK I can understand God not wanting another episode like that..but he later chooses to give Man free will and let's Satan do his thing with man WTF!?! Then as man does his thing on earth many dozens of times man really pisses God off and God makes it known ie the great flood, and turning the woman who peeked into a cow lick. Now as far as I can tell no man or woman in the history of man/woman has ever done such a crime that Satan did to God. In fact much of man's greatest sin against man seems to be he/she simply does not choose to believe in God. Satan who knew for a fact there was and is a God tried to kill God. Man gets drowned and turned into pillars of salt not too mention what happend to poor old loyal Job at the hand of God who was for some as yet unexplained reason hanging with the very same Satan that tried to KILL him!?!

Does that make sense to anyone!?!
