Because faith is a much broader spectrum than Religion is. You are placing faith in a theistic context, while there are many more no-theistic things you can take on faith.

I have faith in the economy stabilizing again, and if more people do so, the sooner the economy does stabilize again.
I have faith that the US will choose the right person for president this time.
I have faith that my watch will be repaired before I go on holiday although that is by no means certain.

Non of these I would call bad.
Best regards,
Leo van Miert
