Although I am not religious I can understand how people can take some thing on pure faith. I for a time I had no idea how anyone could believe anything without hard evidence.

I was thinking one night about the nature of reality and what I could believe, what I came up with was rather disturbing to me. I decided that the only thing that I truly knew was that I and only I exist. The only reason that I believe that my wife exists and that you reading this exists is faith. I don't have any proof but I wouldn't want to exist if I was the only thought and thus faith comes into play. I don't see religious people much different than me; they just take it a bit further. I think faith, fear and anxiety walk hand in hand.

I wrote this to get other peoples take on what I am thinking.
