an icepick through the keyhole

I find myself reading this post as if the "I" referred to me. The only thing I can expound upon that was not specifically listed is that I think God gave each us of the ability to question and to analyze our faith, and that to not question or analyze our faith is to prove that we have very very little. I find that the only way to strengthen my faith is to question it and not simply believe what I'm told or what I read that somebody else has written. I don't believe that we can Love God fully if we blindly accept what we're told; as we are then servants of whomever told us this "truth" instead of using the abilities God gave us to find the truth ourselves.
