Do you think there's a difference between faith and gullability?

I always viewed faith in terms of "a leap of faith", i.e. i can't prove this, but i believe in it because i trust the source (god/bible in my case).

However, i don't think faith means that you believe in things that are proven false. For instance, if it were proven that Jesus never lived, or that his actions in the bible were just made up, i wouldn't continue believing they were true.

So faith: extending your belief where facts are not present, but NOT believing in things that definitely aren't true.

talk it up.

I believe I'll get on time today at work. That is a necessary use of faith. Believing God made the Earth in 7 days is idiocy, cause it isn't related to jack shit besides your dumb ass brain being dumb.
