kumar, In a way, I agree with you, but believe that to have "faith" it must be in an entity. That some thing denotes an inanimate object which cannot really respond to the faith a person may try to have in it. One can have faith in an object that it will work when that person uses it, but cannot answer the needs of your faith by itself.

kumar, you would be correct if you left out agnostics has having faith. Atheists do indeed have faith that here is no god. However agnostics don't deny the existence of god but admit that its existence can't be know.

Seems to me an atheists faith, is that there is no faith, an Agnostics faith, is that there is faith, but damn if he/she knows what it is. jdn
