Faith comes naturally. The caveman sees that the sunrises and falls like clockwork and with it comes and goes daylight. This is comforting to him. He can plan around this. Philosophy, science, and religion all seek to give that same comfort and where we are comforted we find faith. This is what I mean by (within) it starts in our minds and maybe hearts. Doesn't that seem obvious? The sun didn't invent faith the caveman did.

Secondly, I think you are talking about blind faith. Less just say faith is believing what you wish to be true or like you said hold to be true. You can have faith in something consistantly proven like a devoted wife. It's funny. I have faith in God and Jesus but no religion.
