I sense that we are going to get into a semantic argument, but essentially I believe that your faith will only remain static/the same (insert word you want here) if you are not working on it, and if you are not working on it then you are paying it lip service.
In short I believe that real faith is constantly examined and challenged.
I rarely get into semantic arguments.
People create them from my statements all the time though so maybe I do start them. I try to be as blunt and simplistic as possible.
Our disagreeing about the notion of faith is not semantics.
You believe faith is something to be constantly challenged whereas I believe faith is the equivalent of confidence which means there's no reason to challenge it until it can be shattered.
It's a waste of time to have faith in something that is so easily and constantly challenged. It would seem that would just lead to having your faith match up to your opinion.
