That's several definitions ... what's clear to me is that faith is what we all have, I have faith in science (with reason because it works), I have faith in my friends (with reason because they've been there for me), I have no faith in deity (because there is no reason to believe any of the current claims to such).
Yes, I have faith but it is not in any way the same kind of faith as those who faith in the absence of (and often in spite of the) evidence.
