I think the most interesting examples of faith are in religion, in one's view of their fellow man, and in one's view of self.
I am an athiest, and thus have no faith in God or religion. I am an optimist concerning my fellow man - I believe people are generally good when in appropriate societal settings. And first and foremost I have faith in myself - that I interpret the world around me appropriately, that I know what I don't know, I know right from wrong, I'm a good person, and I'm doing my own part to make the world a better place.
It has been my experience that there is no strategizing, rationalizing, persuading, or drama where faith itself is concerned ... there is simply a struggle free inner KNOWING that whatever worldly drama "we" may be going through, "we" WILL come through to a place of (often times unexplainable) clarity. "We" will be able to handle whatever comes our way... & be o.k.
Venturing into the unknown... riding faith 'round the bend.
Faith is the substance of things hoped for; the evidence of things not seen.
Faith is not tangible.
Whereas science is "to see is to believe," with faith, "believing is seeing."
I'm a Christian. Without my faith in God, I'm no more than a wild beast. What would prevent me from killing the next person?
