I understand the word faith is a hard one to accept because of its relationship with religion and saying that having faith is delusional is a fun way to say religious people are delusional without actually saying it. But having faith in your abilities to move forward into the future that is unknown is not the same thing as having faith in a risen savior, a God speaking through a burning bush, or a flying bowl of spaghetti. Though I would encourage us all to look more closely at two out of those three.

You have a lot of good insight. I can tell by looking through your history and your right, we should absolutely lean on our past experiences to move us forward.
