It is total blind faith. And you know what, whatever floats your boat. I have friends who are religious who completely acknowledge that their religion is on nothing but faith.

I'd like you to acknowledge it as well.

Your friends are wrong. Plus, I've been defining faith as "relationship with God/trust in God" this whole time. Assuming your friends are Christians, the book of James states that the demons believe in God. Belief with respect to salvation obviously is a little more than the recognition of existence.

But you realize that the definition of faith I stated is an actual dictionary definition of the word?

And no, they're right. You're wrong. What else is there to back your belief other than faith?
