Yep, i agree.
I don't remember who but someone once said humans have a hole in their brains, a hole that can be filled only with faith.
Sad.

@Fernie: there is no other kind of faith.

@imareallyfatman: I have faith in lots of stuff..religious faith is the only blind faith

@Fernie: Faith is believing in something without any evidence.
So every faith is blind.

@imareallyfatman: ?? I have faith that I will do the right things, I have faith that the sun and moon will rise...I have faith in many things...none of it blind

@Fernie: They are not examples for faith.
You don't have faith that you will do the right thing, you believe it because you think you are smart enough to not makes mistakes. You believe it because you have seen during your life that you usually don't make mistakes.
You don't have faith that the Sun will rise. You know it will rise because you know that it did for billions of years and you know that probably it will keep doing so for many more billions of years.
You don't have faith in these things, you just have good reasons to believe. You have evidences.

@Fernie:
@Celine:
Dear girls, english is not my first language and i cannot explain easily why there is no god. Luckily there are books that talk about it, for example The god delusion, by Dawkins.
There are reasons to think that god doesn't exists and he explains why. Just think about it: if there was no reason to believe in god and no reason to believe there is no god, then why being atheist? You should be agnostic.
But i'm not agnostic, i have evidences that god isn't real, so i'm atheist.
