About This Quote

Faith is believing in something you know that isn't true. This quote is in reference to a very common misconception about religion. The quote implies that religion is in fact a belief in something, when in fact religion is a way of life. It has nothing to do with what you believe in.

People who believe in religion do so because it makes them feel better about themselves and their lives. This quote questions whether someone who believes in something that doesn't exist can be considered a “good person.”
