> > > Faith is believing something you know is not true. I don't really think that is the usual definition of Faith. Faith has two components, one is self created: A person believes in something, say the existence of God. This belief is essentially internally generated, based on one's environment and world view. The other one is accepting the voice of a trusted authority. In either case faith is acceptance as valid of something that is not directly observable or the transmission of information by a trusted source. It is *not* accepting of something that is untrue. K.
