Quote:You can find out, you can call my boss, you can verify. That is not the case with what will happen next month.I can call your boss, and I have to believe he is telling me the truth. That is then based on faith again. This was the problem I had with your original post...every belief can be justified as "faith based", which means your definition of the word "faith" is synonymous with "belief" in the first place.
Give me an example of a statement that can be believed but does not depend on faith in any way...
Quote:Indeed, so what?So I don't think there is any logic to saying non-verifiable things are all "faith-based". Unless you went with your range system and said "The belief that the sun will rise tomorrow is based on lots of evidence / reason, and a little bit of faith".
