I have faith that the next chair I sit on won't fall apart and leave me sitting on the floor. It's faith in the sense of 'trust' and there's a silent 'probably' contained in my use of the word faith. My faith in chairs is based on long observation, but if it looks or feels rickety or fragile my faith in it's ability to support me will be much reduced. This sense of the word faith is basically tentatively holding a conclusion based on inductive reasoning.
Is this question ever going to tie back to not believing in God or gods, the only thing all atheists have in common?

I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
