O YE OF LITTLE FAITH?
I AM writing regarding the Oct. 28 headline on the front of the Metro section, “New T ads reach out to Hub’s faithless.’’
The term “faithless’’ is used as if humanists, agnostics, atheists, and secularists had no faith. This is not so.
Many people who do not belong to a religious group are good, honest, caring people. Belonging to an organized, structured church doesn’t necessarily mean that its adherents will be credits to humankind.
History is replete with the stories of organized religions that used their powers not to benefit people, but for their own power and wealth.
“Faith’’ is a personal word defined only by the individual.
