Totally off the mark.
I wish to bring attention to the dangers of <belief without evidence>.
This is not the same "faith" that is used in "faithful to your spouse".
I have no problems with marital fidelity (any way you look at it :-).
I call <belief without evidence> "faith" because that is what other
people call it. Contrary to what some have said on this list, I am
not making this up.
I guess there is an underlying assumption here that there is a
positive correlation between beliefs held without evidence and
bad beliefs (given most common definitions of "bad"). If that is
not a reasonable assumption, I might have to withdraw my
condemnation of faith.
