    ahhh but duster if one is to receive enlightenment one has to question the foundations upon which one's faith is constructed no?

    That question's ans isn't relevant to the thread Duster.
    Confucious say "he who knows not and knows that he knows not is a fool, shun him." "he who knows not and knows that he knows not, is a child teach him"

    How are you going to reassure him? Can you prove beyond a reasonable doubt that our beliefs are right?

    I can do it for mine but maybe not urs if i dont know what they are. Its just like i take to on top of a 100 story building and tell you if you jump off you gonna die. I dont haffi jump off to show you and example now do i? All i have to do is just bring you to the "understanding" that jumping is dangerous and most likely to end in your death. i question my "religion" all the time but i will never question my "faith". hope you overstand!
