Anyone who feels secure in their faith can rest on their laurels while others wrestle with the big questions then.

I am physically large enough and skilled in boxing to have 'faith' that I can take care of myself and I am 100% 'secure' in that faith, but if every time I walked out of my door I was attacked - even by 6 stone weaklings - I would not enjoy it, would soon tire of it, and would soon not relish the prospect of venturing out.

It is no different with matters pertaining to Faith or Intellect - constant attack and ridicule do not entice one to join 'debates' - no matter how secure one is in his/her faith. Especially when counter arguments are dismissed without answer, or facts which rebutt are so conveniently ignored.
