ritual is very important to faith. ritual builds habbits, and altho things done out of habbit can be done half-heartedly, it keeps us in the faith, none the less. like, i have this wonderful habbit of going to church everyweek, a habbit i've had for years. and altho i do it BECAUSE of the habit sometimes, i remain a practicing church goer, which helps me stay with my faith. if i didnt have that habbit and just didn't go to church, i might fall away all together. i realized that once i denounced my catholic faith, i learned that ritual and repetition are VERY important.
this is why i love aimee epstein for reminding me of the importance of ritual.
