Faith is the process of suspending critical inquiry – it impedes discovery and progress.
As a human being we can learn to have to faith in the future – or simply generate a positive affect – and then the mind will not require faith in order to feel safe.
Faith in doctrine or the belief that we have the truth… – this is dangerous.
Truth requires an ever open process of re-evaluation.
