Quote:Well... says me? Can you explain to me what faith in general would be? What would having faith that isn't assigned to anything feel like, and how would you express it?With As Christ points out One must have enough 'faith' to simply Ask seek and knock as outlined in Luke 11.
Quote:The statement "I have faith" means very little on its own, unless you attach a target to that faith. When you say "I have faith" the implied second part of that sentence is "in god."A statement of faith means nothing. The proper identification of faith can only be done through action.
Quote:There's no irony here, I just can't envision a method by which faith could exist without a thing to have faith in. If you can, please enlighten me.Maybe because you persume too much. Your faith only as to be deep enough for you to ask, Seek, and knock for the truth you claim you want. Faith is simple trust, whether you put that trust completely in science and your education/how you were taught to think, or if you can find a mustard seeds worth to look where God told you to look, it all stems from the same FAITH.

No one as a lack of 'faith' we all have faith in something. It is a matter of allocation of said faith that is the issue.
