Can Atheists have faith in other matters ?

Opticom · 2012-06-01 23:57:18

Can Atheists have faith in any other matters ? e.g. Faith in other people, faith in society etc. ? Would they be more sceptical than average when it comes to faith in people or society etc. ?

I have an absolute unshakeable faith that at least one of these threads will pop up every day for me to knock a bit of craic out of when I'm bored.

Nice one!

"Faith" in this (or any of the Religion & Spirituality forums) has a certain connotation. It concerns the claims of religions.

Referencing it to "other matters" only ignores the word as it applies to atheism.
