Aak! I was hoping we were past the theocracy stage..but we're probably not eh? Greymatter nailed it--capitalism most likely, or corporatism. Where can I get me some Nomex sandels?

It doesnt matter......
How about this. If there was a "global religion" would this change your religious stance?
if the chinese land become "free"....I think they have theupper hand over even up.....picture thousands of war planes in the air....we'd have to set of aerial nukes to combat that many
if a religion were to "take over" it would have to be a combination of every religion currently on the planet.
the religions of the world would come together and unite long before people refused to believe in their own religion and accept another one.
people seem to think of the future as though it were far away. the future is now. if you can imagine it you can make it reality. technology is at that point.
but it stands to reason: technology is always at the point, is it not? invention is only the assimilation of current knowledge. no one can possibly invent something that they cant think of first, and no one can think of something that they dont think is possible at any given time.
belief demonstrates knowledge because if you believe something is possible, then it is. you are the god of your own world.
take for example:
someone says they want to do something "physically impossible", such as breathe underwater. so they build a submarine and they are thus able to achieve the impossible
Doesn't belief have more to do with faith...?Quote:

Is that wrong?
But if you break this all down logically, everything we believe is based on faith in some respect.
Theories, rules, and laws can only be proven to be 99.9% true in virtue of the fact that time is not infinite and we cannot logically test every hypothesis an infinite number of times.
Everything we feel is also based on faith too...feelings are completely subjective in that they completely rely on various factors and variables which cannot be controlled or made standard in all human beings. So we are only believing that which we have already been conditioned in some way or another to have faith in as correct or true...
