believing in X ( a question)

Let 's suppose I believe in Mr X, so what should I do for him ?

to say thanks or nice to meet you sir?

Does it mean that I have to pay him a price?

Really,it is a difficult question,so what do you think?

I'm not clear on the basis of your question. What is the situation in regards to this Mr. X?

How can you say "nice to meet you" to a Mr. you have never met?

I would think that you would have to know or have heard something more about Mr. X before deciding on a course of action. I wouldn't want to say "nice to meet you" to Charles Manson, for instance.



Place me like a seal over your heart, like a seal on your arm; for love is as strong as death, its jealousy unyielding as the grave. It burns like blazing fire, like a mighty flame. -- Song 8:6

I don't see a religious or philosophical debate resulting from what info you've supplied thus far.
If you could be more informative as to what the point is you want to debate, then perhaps we won't be tempted to move this thread to General or Misc.

"Difficult" is not the adjective that I would use.

You're the proof that it doesn't.

Yeah, a tad vauge in information.

You Believe in Mr. X........ believe that he exists? Believe he can do something? Believe he helped you in some way?

Would you say Thanks? Thanks for what?

Nice to meet you? I could see that as an introduction, like "Hello"

Pay him a price? For what? What kind of price? Money or Sacrafice?

Difficult question? The question has no foundation to answer. Unless you have more information, we're just wasting time.

Whatever you believe is appropriate to do for him. I recommend you behave in a moral, ethical, lawful and polite manner.

I believe its relative to the situation, what you hold in your image of meeting Mr. X based on what you know from that snapshot of information.

Vague.

If that is the case, then I would say "Hi" and keep walking by.
