> Here's what it says when you look up faith, and this is just that which applies to religious faith:
>
> 2 a (1) : belief and trust in and loyalty to God (2) : belief in the traditional doctrines of a religion b (1) : firm belief in something for which there is no proof (2) : complete trust
> 3 : something that is believed especially with strong conviction; especially : a system of religious beliefs.
>
> I kind of like this better than "the service and worship of God or the supernatural." That's not really what the faith board is about as much as it is about belief systems.So that would be 2a? 2a would be fine with me. 2b and 3 aren't necessarily religious...
> Also, an aside that belongs on faith...
So I'll redirect it? :-)
