Instinctively.

Sometimes, I believe what I want to believe. Even if it’s contrary to the evidence. That goes for spiritual matters. Thing is, when it comes to spiritual beliefs – one just knows. One accepts based on faith. Rather than evidence. Though one can construe faith as a form of evidence.  Wasn’t always that way. I needed conclusive evidence. But then, I decided that was silly. That certain things are beyond the realm of absolute understanding. Therefore, I need to make assumptions. Based on what I want to believe. Deep down. In my soul/spirit. Instinctively. –Jim Broede
