Okay, look at the screen of your computer, you see it right...so you do not need faith to believe its real though its good to not even believe everything you see.
Ahh...but you are typing in words in a little box, in response to something another person said. Can you see the other person? So is the asker a real person and if so, why do you believe it if you cannot see them.
Then there is the matter in which the question and your answer travel from one computer screen to another. Can you see that? If you are like most of us you see a cord going into a little box called a modem (if you do not have dsl or cable or wifi, I really do pity you).
So, how can one ask a question and someone answer a question and they come and go at a speed greater than we can even imagine and appear on this real computer screen. How do you know where the words go past the cable box if you cannot see them go?
Oh someone can tell you where they go, but how do you know they are telling you the truth. They can explain how the internet works, but boy it sounds complicated and even scary and besides, you do not have to believe it.
So now, what IS faith?

Hebrews 11:1-Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
Being able to believe without the necessity to percieve.
