Laughter kills fear and without fear there can be no faith. For without fear of the devil there is no need for God.
I'm a scientist not a theologian. I don't know if there is a God or not. Religion requires certainty. Revere and respect Gaia. Have trust in Gaia. But not faith.
Religious belief like history itself is a story that is always unfolding always subject to inquiry and ripe for questioning. For without doubt there is no faith.
The mind controls so much of the body. We are much more than flesh and blood we are complex systems. Patients do better when they have faith that they're going to do better. That's why I always tell my patients and their families not to neglect their prayers. There's nobody I don't say that to.
