Believe (?)

From the time we are able to make decisions in our life we are told to Believe. And taught that it is a moral weakness if we do not. But the foundations of that required (demanded?) belief are too often vague, with no concrete reasons for our belief.

And who are we to believe? What are we to believe? How are we to believe?

This blind belief to me is like a tired old wallpaper that is ripped and torn with holes where it has been overused. It serves no purpose, yet it is still presented in a golden frame that itself is worn. And imperfectly enshrouded within another simple one that repeats the questions......what, who, why?
