The theist believes in the conclusions in his holy book, even though there is no proof the holy book is binding on all reality, the realm it is making claims about. Faith.

The atheist believes in the conclusions delivered by reason, even though there is no proof that reason is binding on all reality, the realm it is making claims about. Faith.
