  Article 09-Faith  
  Canon 1972  
  Faith is a fictional term meaning loyalty to a Person based on promise or duty. Therefore, in its earliest meaning Faith is “duty of fulfilling one’s trust in God”. Faith is a solemn obligation to a promise, which is why the loss of faith is considered by many religions as a willful breach of trust and contract.  
  Canon 1973  
  Faith is not the same meaning as belief. Belief is a fictional term originally equivalent in meaning “Trust in God” whereas Faith in its original fictional sense means “duty of fulfilling one’s trust in God”. Belief is therefore trust in the “Divine” that something is true, whereas Faith is an obligation to believe something is true.  
  Canon 1974  
  Belief is not the same meaning as Knosis or “true knowledge”. Belief is based on trust of a higher deity, while Knosis or true knowledge is based on trust borne from Proof, Reason or Logic. In order to strengthen certain fictional models of Reality based on Faith, the definition of Knosis has been abrograted and the definition of Belief deliberately misconstrued.  
  Canon 1975  
  As these canons of Divine Law, Natural Law and Positive Law incorporate the proof and existence of the Divine Creator in All as well as perfect Knosis, it may be correctly concluded that these canons represent “perfect belief”.  
  Canon 1976  
  In direct contrast to arguments based on Proof, as the rejection of an argument of Faith requires a significant emotional acceptance of deception and error, incomplete and emotional attacks against a particular argument of Faith may reinforce a belief, not weaken it.  
  Canon 1977  
  An Argument of Proof in Law is superior to an Argument of Faith in Law.  
  Canon 1978  
  All inferior Canon Law of the Roman Cult, also known as the Vatican, also falsely known as the Holy See is based on arguments of Faith, not arguments of Proof. Therefore, all claimed laws of the Roman Cult are inferior to these canons.
