Edit: Why use a word like 'faith' to describe a 'belief' in something that is known? Answer: to create the illusion that believing in something mythical or metaphysical is no different than believing a principle or law of nature that is real, repeatable, and proven.
Call me kooky, I just like to be specific. As stated previously, faith is both what is believed and belief itself. All of us live our lives utilizing faith of some fashion or another.

Why do you think the part in bold is in there?[/b]
Because you put a right-facing bracket in front of a 'b', and followed it with a left-facing bracket?
I might be wrong (it happens more often than I'd like to see happen), but I'm guessing that the definition you copied and pasted was from a source that offers its take on popular usage.
God is for idiots(lol)!!
