Ok I got it. Religions have been created by humans and that's for sure.I do not believe in god that the religion states, that is supposed to have created the universe and who is supposed to mediate in mundane lives of living beings.
I have faith in the philosophy or rather ideology that gave birth to religion.
Confusing, isn't it?
Nicely explained! though I believe that there is a creator force but I don't disagree with you.I don't mean to answer on behalf of @arnabmit, but let's pretend for a moment you asked me the question.
I'd say that I have faith in destiny, nature, or the concept of karma, i.e. if you do good/bad, the results will be good/bad. Theism is about believing in the existence of G/god/s. Atheism is about not believing in the existence of G/god/s. Take for example the Buddhists. They do believe in the teachings of Buddha, but Buddha himself was silent on the existence of G/god/s, so the Buddhists today could be both theists or atheists, but all have faith in Buddhism, i.e. teachings of The Buddha.
My perception.
