Isn't faith all we have?
When we go to bed we expect to wake up again, but there is no absolute reason why we should. We expect electrons to continue spinning around the nucleus of atoms, yet we can only refer to past experience to predict the future.
To have anything BUT faith is to fool oneself in my opinion. To rely on the past to tell the future can be quite fruitful, but considering how little we know about Creation it's incredibly naïve imo.
It's quite ironic how the most 'rational' non-believers have the most faith, at least when I think about it :p
Then again my definition of faith might differ from yours etc, so if you don't agree just let it slip
