The belief that one cannot be harmed, and nothing can go wrong in your life if you simply have faith in your favourite imaginary supernatural being.
Best espoused in 2020 by US republicans who equate "wearing a mask" to "not having faith in god's will and protection"
By extension, this also means it is safe to jump into traffic if you simply have faith in god hard enough
Of course, this also implies that if you leap into traffic and get hurt, your faith was not true enough.
This belief system is a self reinforcing and self-reproducing way to hurt yourself. You leap into traffic, get hit by a car, stand up, believe in god harder, leap into traffic again, get hit by a car again. This process repeats until god protects you forever or you wind up dead. Slrt of like a "shit in one hand, wish in the other" type scenario.
