Are there limits to KNOWLEDGE? and if so, when we go beyond them, what else would we call it other than FAITH? Faith that the future will resemble the past even perhaps?
I guess my main point would just be to get a couple of the people out there to admit that yes, we all take some things on faith, because then this entire development of religion (or perhaps, religiousness? spirituality?) angle becomes merely a matter of degree...
Do you follow all that?
