Faith Finds Its Strength in Community, Not Doctrine

Materialism struggles to stand alone, as its efficacy cannot be asserted independently from a community or belief system. Belief, especially in the context of Christianity, is intrinsically linked to the collective experience of a community rather than an individual doctrine. The essence of Christianity transcends conventional beliefs about God as a distant deity, portraying it instead as the process of dying to the old notions of divinity and living through the spirit of community among believers. This community embodies an egalitarian spirit that holds faith through shared belief, indicating that the strength of faith is derived from collective conviction rather than hierarchical doctrines. This perspective aligns with Marxist revolutionary ideas and illustrates that love and belief flourish within a communal framework, affirming that true faith is fundamentally a shared journey among individuals.
