But I reserve the word, "faith," to being a state of being grasped by something that transcends any particular religious beliefs.

In any case, the term, "blind faith" does not use the word, "faith" as I do, but means something more like, "blind beliefs."-I accept your correction in terms. Blind beliefs is a good compromise. My system of belief comes from my readings for many years as an agnostic. I gradfually arrived at the view I have and wrote an autobiographical summary of my reasoning. At no time did antecedent religious values enter the picture, to answer a previous comment of your in a previous post I can&apos;t locate at the moment.
