Depends on what faith means. Faith is not always in a deity or something unknown. Faith can also mean hope in something is true with out evidence to show it is. For example you can have faith in someone even though you cannot prove fully of the aspect you have faith in. However faith in deity seems to steam from insecurity or inability to cope with reality.
