If you say so, but it doesn't have anything to do with what I was commenting on. I was noticing that the definition of faith we'd been asked to consider reflects secular use, and not the fullness of a religious faith. That's not surprising, since it came from a dictionary, and not a magic book.
That's why we can't replace faith with trust or confidence in a religious discussion. It's your problem if blind faith is a problem for you. Faith is felt. Faith doesn't have eyes to see, so it hardly matters if it were blind. I don't see anything bad about that. We do it all the time.
