Faith is the absence of reason, the suppression of knowledge, and the willful denial of reality.

Faith is the process of not thinking.

The word "faith" was invented to have an excuse to believe in impossible bullshit that makes cowards feel good.

"Faith means making a virtue out of not thinking. It's nothing to brag about. And those who preach faith and enable and elevate it are our intellectual slave holders, keeping mankind in a bondage to fantasy and nonsense that has spawned and justified so much lunacy and destruction."
-- Bill Maher

Faith, no one word personifies the absolute worst and most wicked properties of religion better than that. Faith is mind-rot. It’s the poison that destroys critical thinking, undermines evidence, and leads people into lives dedicated to absurdity. It’s a parasite regarded as a virtue.
-- PZ Myers, University of Minnesota biologist
