Faith, in the religious sense, seems to me to be holding onto beliefs in spite of a lack of evidence; or even evidence to the contrary. It's a mind boggling idea to me. It depends entirely on what nonsense beliefs got drummed into you in the first place. It could have been literally anything. And then you use "faith" to ignore reality and hold onto them.

Why, exactly? So you don't go to hell I suppose. Hell #294,728,624 in particular. Still gonna go to all the other hells.
