It's a very different thing religion and faith. Religion is man-made it's man-regulated. And faith you can define God as you wish. But I think they're two different things.
The faith religious believers have in God is small compared to the faith people put in politicians knowing how many times they have been disappointed in the past but still insisting that this time it will be different.
If you went to your closet today would you pull out the same outfit you wore 10 or 15 years ago? You wear feelings and faith differently as well.
You know this idea of going around the world imposing democracy by growing a middle-class a trading merchant class that is independent of your faith is a good notion but we're all partially different - it's no good imposing systems on people that it doesn't suit.
My faith foundation works to bring about a greater respect and understanding between different faiths. We basically work with six popular religions in the world which are the three Abrahamic religions Hinduism and Buddhism and Sikhism.
A faith is something you die for a doctrine is something you kill for. There is all the difference in the world.
A whole lot of us believers of all different religions are ready to turn back the tide of madness by walking together in both the dark and the light - in other words through life - registering voters as we go and keeping the faith.
Faith is different from proof the latter is human the former is a Gift from God.
People define Christianity differently. I think a large portion of our population are Christians they're not all growing in their faith they're not all active but I believe that a lot of people believe in Jesus and believe that he is their Lord and Savior.
I hold that religion and faith are two different things.
