...always under fire, rain or shine. But thats just how it will be. But the REAL question that should be asked is... why do we remain under such fire and why don't we just run away? Why not run to something that would be easier...like with the mockers?
...because it is something to hold onto, it is the thing that helps us endure through pain, through hardship, and when we are afraid our hearts do not fail because of that fear, the word remains strong
and never dies in those who believe. that is the supernatural power to it - the word that never fails.
it is a truth that can be only attained through person experience.

Nope. I'll have to explain my thoughts on this, if you are interested.
First premise doesn't support the conclusion. You would have to modify it to be, "All men are lieing all the time, man wrote the bible, therefor it's lies"
Presuppositionally, that would be correct.
The universe isn't infinite, sorry. You can't have a real nfinite set.

Belief is not a choice, nor is it willful. If you want to truly believe in something, you must first understand it. I would suggest doing research, reading the holy text pertaining to your religion of choice (assuming you are actively seeking to bind yourself to a dogma), and partake in healthy amount of rational inquiry/ self reflection.
Saul, you are missing the point entirely. I cannot just choose what to believe in, as belief is multifaceted and is contingent on cultural pressures, predispositions, etc.
I can't just will myself into believing something. For example, no matter how hard I try, I simply cannot believe in the toothfairy. I could tell myself as well as others that I do in fact believe in the toothfairy, but I would be lying to myself and others.
