And you are only ever taking anyone else's word for it.O.k. if that is the definition of blind faith, then I agree. The difficulty falsifying Christian claims makes any faith in Christianity blind faith by that definition. Even if I saw Moses split the Red Sea, it would be blind faith due to the nature of Christian claims. (Of course my faith in the miraculous event would not be blind faith, because that could theoretically be falsified. On the other hand, having faith that "God answers prayers sometimes if He feels like it" is blind faith.)
