The
difference between
"belief" and "faith"?
A difference that makes a
difference or merely a
distinction?

Faith: "By virtue of
the Absurd"—
Kierkegaard called it. Makes no
sense at all. Beyond common
sense.
Beyond belief &
Unbelief. Beyond
the Goodies & the
Weasels. Beyond
the sensible & the
ridiculous. Beyond
defense &
offense--well, maybe
not beyond offense.
Faith.
Beyond the rational &
the irrational,
the logical & the illogical: beyond
pretty & ugly—skinny & fat, beyond
nose jobs & blow jobs, face lifts &
crows feet, conservatives &
liberals,
nice guys & nasty,
good grades and
lousy, conscientious and
cavalier,
nonchalant and uptight. .
yonder
Beyond
"well-said" and stutter,
stammer and stunning,
beyond
muddle and clarity,
confusing
and consistent, pain in
the ass
and plucky persistence.
Yonder comes Miss Daisy,
wonder how can I tell? I can
tell her by the apron and the
dress she wore.
O let the midnight special
shine it’s everlovin’
light one
