Faith isn't a book of scripture. Putting faith in a book will garner nothing. What the book says, however, might show you how and why to have faith, because your decision to have faith is a choice. We are inundated in film and book by images of the faithful holding the Bible in front of them as if it is some indestructible shield against evil. They hold the cross out as if it is a sword of God. They place it on the forehead of those possessed by evil and it burns a cross brand into the flesh. We are made to believe holy water has this same effect simply because it is blessed. Faith isn't in a book, or a silver crucifix, or tap water that's been blessed by someone that we're told has been blessed by someone else who's been blessed. One has to finally take a moment to ask, "Who is doing all of this blessing?"
