MBTI and Faith

Jun 08, 2007 09:15

Let me pre-empt this by saying that I am in no way kicking organised (or disorganised) religion.  I'm curious.  That's all.

How do you feel about faith?  I was raised in a religious household to be a good Christian.  Yet, for myself, I had no ability at all to believe in the churchs' doctrine.  It was just too irrational for me, and (unsurprisingly) irrationality is not my good point.

I have, over the years, explored other religions, and while some sound very good I just can't get past the logic of it all.  In short, because I tend to over-analyse everything to its minutest particle, I can't have faith in what I can't fathom.

I sometimes find myself wishing that I could have faith in God (any God), as other people do.  Other people seem to obtain great comfort from their faith, and I envy them.

What say you, fellow iNTj people?
