in-head talk

Path A: (suppose he's playing dumb)
- Faith is human's salvation.
- What faith?

Path B: (suppose he's being interrogative)
- Faith is human's salvation.
- That is, if you are human and you have faith, you are saved?
- Yes, comparatively speaking.
- From what?
- From yourself.

Path C: (suppose he's being egoistic)
- Faith is human's salvation.
- I don't have faith. If I turn out to be a human as well, I am doomed.
- You are human. And your not having faith is a form of faith.
- That particular form of faith you've mentioned has me go nowhere.
- You've just admitted to mediocrity.
- I think so.
- Why would you accept it at all?
- Because I'm indifferent.
- Are you?
- No. I'm heart-broken about my situation. But it's true. I can't tell lies to you, myself.

Path D: (suppose he's being imaginative)
- Faith is human's salvation.
- I don't have faith.
- Really? Describe your state of faith.
- An all-white empty room.
- No sofa?
- No.
- No window?
- No.
- No light?
- If not, how could you see the whiteness, dummy?
- ...
- ...
- Hey?
- Huh?
- Have you just answered for yourself?
- ...

Path E: (suppose he's being realistic)
- Faith is human's salvation.
- Am I really having this conversation?

    - What are you talking about?
    - I'm talking about faith.
    - What kind of faith is it?
    - The kind that saves people. Have you ever talked about faith with a carrot? It's pretty funny.
    - What did the carrots say?
    - How can they say, you idiot! They just put me in the fridge whenever I talked about faith with them. They can't bear it.
