Default Re: What is good about faith?

Edit: I have spoken to a few people who become athiests at that age because they decided to sit and read the Bible themselves instead of relying on cherry-picked quotes as they did when they were children. Fully reading the contents of the Bible seems to be an effective route to losing faith.

Interesting, Alex. I made it a quest at the age of 16 to read the entire NT and first 4 books of the OT. The quest helped shake my faith rather than strengthen it.
