The belief that you can count on those you care about. Having faith in someone implies that they care enough about you to come through for you when it really matters. Examples include friends, family, comrades, and leaders.
While not theistic in nature, faith has recently been bastardized by organized religions for public matters when the word "religion" might spark negative connotation (now why would that be?) This beautiful concept is being slowly destroyed and its meaning changed by the P.C. world of today.

Get the Faith mug."We may define "faith" as the firm belief in something for which there is no evidence. Where there is evidence, no one speaks of "faith." We do not speak of faith that two and two are four or that the earth is round. We only speak of faith when we wish to substitute emotion for evidence. The substitution of emotion for evidence is apt to lead to strife, since different groups, substitute different emotions."
— Bertrand Russell (1872-1970)

Get the faith mug.A girl with the brightest, most beautiful green eyes you could possible see. She has shiny blond/brown hair and never has a bad hair day. She never complains and is the coolest chick to hang out with. Absolutely one of the biggest badasses I’ve ever met. She seems to flirt with almost every guy in the school with how nice she is but will never date, probably never. If you know a faith like I do, you are the luckiest person around and make sure to know that.
