any faith system which we adhere to as humans, should work in the real world. what i mean is, it needs to have an effect on our interaction with the present in order to make it more real. Many religiouse practitioners realise how difficult this is and so cop out of the idea of thier faith affecting the world now and declare that it will all happen after we die. Which is handy because who's to say it doesn't. But it is cheating. All faith systems must work here and now and this blog is primarily about that one question. How do i make my faith work and does it work? (that's two questions) - it's all very confusing.

If i had a magic tv remote - I've seen a film along these lines - which could control the world and everyone in it - a sort of push button God - then i would be right to worship that remote. I would be right to tell people 'this remote controls the world' they might be skeptical, but it would be the truth, and i would have a greater understanding of the world than anyone else.

But on the other hand if i have a faith system that doesn't work, whether Christianity or humanity, i have no right to believe in that system, it is worthless.

Faith in any system, whether religious or not, is the same. It is attributing power where power belongs. But if we have put our faith in the wrong place then we are wasting our time and our lives.

This is why a wrote the card game blog. To start the journey by saying that the way we build our identity is not currently working for any human being but the real question is where do we walk out to? what is outside the door?
