an individual extends him or herself, and at a certain peril perhaps, in order to believe in something... and it is then when this person makes him or herself vulnerable, not unlike a person taking a chance by falling in love... and god bless 'em for the effort, because without taking chances we shall certainly die (out of boredom if nothing else)...
i used to reactively dismiss any person's "religion" or "faith" as a crutch or an addiction... but y'know? -- a body needs to believe in something, i.e., beyond that which they can perceive with their corporeal senses... so i offer the courtesy of respect for that need, and applaud the individual for making the effort...
however, it is the content of those beliefs, be it in astrology, scientology, christianity, judaism or islam, whathaveyou, when my suspicion is it's all complete and utter bullshit...
i saw it on a bumper sticker (sadly offered, but there it is):
"militant agnostic: i don't know and neither do you"...

i'm guessing you're addressing the apparent interrogative to me, and, uhm... i haven't a clue... !
Your website has a useful information for beginners like me.
