19. Same here.

It's as close to a logical argument 'for' faith as I can get. I can't disprove it, so it 'may' exist. I don't need it, so I don't need to follow it. Sometimes, I like the idea of it, so I will occasionally follow it. "It" being my own illogical faith.

Steve Jobs said it better: "I think different religions are doors to the same house. Sometimes I think the house exists, and sometimes I don't. It's the great mystery."
