Along with the “Three Lies” which underlie much modern rejection of call to seek an ethical life, the disdain for “Blind Faith” is a feature of our age.
The term is confused – the point of faith is that it enables action is the absence of certainly. If actions only follows certainty options shrink and possibilities vanish.
In the beautiful and mystic language of the Christian Bible:
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
King James Bible Hebrews 11:v1
Faith enables action and thereby creates a path to better things.
