    A problem cannot be solved by the same thought that created it?

    = another riddle from that human being.

    The answer to your question is...

    Truth is not best friends with with the authority of a foolish faith?

    When we trust what the world says is the truth we are going against truth in its truth?

    How can we simply hold faith and never test what is true in our hearts?

    If humans casually give all power to a figure head then humans do not trust self?

    ............

    Here is another riddle...

    What is worse than being stuck up $hit creek without a paddle?

    one paddle = then you just go around in circles?

    ............

    It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than a rich man enter the kingdom of heaven? = Jesus said that or so they say.

    For me ... i can sum this up... and say...

    Take off your shades... do some study, on the man and the policies he lives by, and walks in agreement with.:

    many times we can't see, with those shades on, so that would be placing foolish faith, then calling it authorative and True.."

    It means that someone who blindly follows authority can be very easily manipulated and will believe whatever he is told.

    Since Albert Einstein said this, it must be true. I mean, Albert Einstein..!!

    It means you shouldn't believe something just because an authority figure said it (e.g. a priest, a professor or a president).

    A few years ago, a young man named Barak Obama stood in front of the American people and promised 'change'. No one questioned what this 'change' was, and took it on faith he knew what he was doing.

    We will be paying for it for decades.

    Blind obedience is never acceptable. Some religion encourage you to question and understand, but others discourage it. Same is true for the government.

    If you believe something for a stupid reason and have power, then you will overlook the truth because you think your beliefs are right.
