  Faith is defined as a belief in something/someone/some idea that does not rest on logical proof or material evidence. Though, many Christians (IE, my boyfriend) like to use the BIBLE as proof of their beliefs, and then ask for YOUR proof, yet with faith there should be NO proof. So if someone uses the bible as proof do they really have faith? Or instead are they just believing in a book? Or, is the faith in the book rather than the religion its self? Also, if asked to back up their belief in the bible (which shouldn’t be possible if it’s true FAITH) some will say that its true because it is backed up by their parents, pastors, or the pope. So instead is it really faith in the people who live around them, faith that they are always right when it comes to religion. Then, are you giving up your freedom of belief to blindly follow another, although admittedly it is true that you choose to believe in the person. So, where does the Christian faith lie? In the word, the book, or the people of today? Maybe all. Maybe there is no faith due to the believers need for definitions. There are many arguments to this idea, because religion is a very controversial topic, and one that can even spawn wars. Heh, though I plan to show this to my boyfriend because he said at one time that my faith was different because I believed without proof. Yet, according to this widely excepted definition then I am the one with true faith, not him. I know, a really long paragraph to simply reaffirm the fact that I was right about something. That’s what happens when I’m bored, lolz! please post any replies if anyone bothers reading this!
