Faith and belief are brothers
From CGW. Of course the Jake-ites’ ‘we don’t want no stuffy old doctrine — we want a relationship with the living Christ’ really means ‘we want a God we can change at our will so we can get what we want, like cough havegayweddings’. Actually I have more respect for ‘I’m, like, spiritual but not religious’, which believes the same thing but is honest about it rather than putting on the trappings and trying to assume the authority of — in short impersonating — the Catholic Church when it suits them (like when they want to spite some conservative congregation by suing them out of their building).
