Faith is the acceptance of information then acted upon. Belief in ignorance would be to believe despite the facts, which is what you seem to be proposing as your own belief.
There is contrary information but faith wins out if you place any merit on positivism. The atheist position exists in light of information to the contrary, and is neutral in outlook.
Your incorrect too.
Faith is the acceptance of 'indoctrination' acted upon.
Its not 'information' because' information' really has to be accurate otherwise its 'misinformation'.
The people who give out this 'misinformation' are not guilty as they received it from other (probably) well meaning theists. Family, church, state etc.
It cant be counted as information is any form as it has no evidence. The most it is is a 'suspicion' by those with a non scientific mind.
The facts are:
1. There is no evidence.
2. That believing in a God requires more answers to the sort of questions asked, creation , reason life after death etc. Not less. It answers nothing.
3. Belief without evidence is not positive in any form it is capitulation to a traditional view and a traditional answer without question or intelligent thought.
4. Atheism is not neutral its positive reliance on a scientific reality to explain issues that were left to primitive superstition. It demands a positive approach before belief takes place.
So in fact you couldnt be more wrong.
Try again.
