Having Faith - 2


Let’s zoom in on what it might mean to “have faith in God” again.

I know Christianity a bit better than any other religious expression, so let me slice and dice in that arena a bit.  Some people in the Christian movement mean by “having faith in God” that they believe that God created the world in six literal days, rested up on a seventh literal day, and that this probably took place a bit over 6,000 years ago.    For some folks, if  a person doesn’t believe this, you don’t have faith in God. 

What do you think?  Is this what it means to have faith in God?
