[Great Rumbler]

There's a little bit of faith mixed in with everything we do since there's no [or very few] absolute certainties in life. There's the chance that our cars could catch fire or that the tires could fail and cause a wreck, but we still drive them anyway. Why? Partially because of our own arrogance [which causes us to believe that accidents won't happen to us], but also because we have faith in the ability of the manufacturers to do their jobs right and that they won't allow shoddy product to be sold to us. There's no evidence that says are cars will work today other than the fact the worked yesterday and our faith in the manufacturers.

Like I said there's faith present in nearly everything we do, it's not as big as the faith in a higher power, but it's faith none-the-less.
