They can have "faith" in the basic "trust/confidence" sense, yes. But earlier your definition of faith was "complete trust/confidence." So, again, two distinct meanings being discussed here. Seriously.. What the hell would be the difference between the jumper who has complete faith and one who had some doubt if they both jumped? Well, this is what I asked you earlier. To me, someone can jump having "complete trust" they'll be caught, or they can jump having doubts they'll be caught but deciding that the rewards outweigh the risks. So it seems someone can ignore the doubts entirely that they'll be caught and have "faith" ("complete trust"), or decide the doubts aren't enough to prevent action and have "faith" ("enough trust"). I do think there's a cognitive difference between faith as "complete trust" and faith as "enough trust." The latter can be wholly supported by evidence and reason; the former can't. |
