I can respect that. I just couldn't live on faith and hope in mythological beings. I always have the hope in the possibility that I won't let myself down. I would feel very vulnerable basing hope on something that my education has shown me is very very suspect.
If it matter, I don't have much faith or hope in medications which I guess you could say is part of science. I did something once that I felt very incapable of doing. I told my doc that it was cold comfort because I couldn't have done it w/o a pill. He told me that the pill didn't do it... I did.
