Faith in selfless Unity for Good.
WTF does that even mean?
Belief in the unprovable, "faith" means "to adhere to whole heartedly in all you do without waver" - - in other words, if the preacher tells you the world is flat and your child's teddy bear can be possessed by demons and kill her in the night (this was actually a real thing in the late 1960's), you'd better believe it. Anyone who disagrees with you is an emissary of Satan who is trying to tempt you into doubting god, and going to hell.
Faith is claiming to know something you CANNOT know, and holding on to that belief in spite of evidence that disproves that belief.
