You: Are you saying that faith is an emotion like love? Something that you feel regardless of whether it makes any sense or not?

Aaron: No, faith is more like a sense. When one has faith, one can sense the truth of it.

You: One's senses can be fooled.

Aaron: Someone with strong faith cannot be fooled.

You: Why?

Aaron: Because it is not the nature of faith to be fooled. Faith is truth.

You: You're not making a whole lot of sense to me. Ancient Greeks had faith in many gods; are you saying that they were correct in their beliefs?

Aaron: Pagans do not have true faith.

You: How can I tell true faith from false faith?

Aaron: When one has true faith, one knows.

You: Are you arguing that the Greeks did not believe that they had a true faith?

Aaron: That is correct. I think that they knew deep in their hearts that they were deceiving themselves. How could their stories be anything more than myths? Than fairy tales?

You: What about the followers of Mohammed?

Aaron: They are deceiving themselves and following a false prophet.

You: Might you not be deceiving yourself?

Aaron: I have faith that I am not.

You: I can see that this will never get anywhere.
