What if faith is mere brain chemistry?

[MonkeyFire]

Define "noise".

Define "witness".

We know gravity works-- and it works regardless if you have faith in it or not: you fall at the same rate, regardless of your level of faith in the theory of gravity.

We know that large falling items create vibrations when they strike the ground. So a falling tree will create vibrations when hitting the ground.

Since trees are pretty much never the only organism in a forest? There will be witnesses to the noise it creates.

None of that requires faith, hope or anything like that.

Nature itself requires beliefs "seal of approval."

When you believe in life the faith becomes something else that is truly sanct.

What? I am so very sorry-- I read your sentence three (3) times, in an attempt to communicate.

Alas, my poor reading skills simply could not parse out any meaning from the above.

My bad, I guess. Whatever it is/was you were attempting to communicate? Has failed to cross the communication barrier.

"What we have here, is a failure to communicate."

Faith becomes hope (the opposite of doom) when applied to life.
