Is it "Due to his limited mind, man is unable to fathom God in any meaningful way except to know that he is the creator and worthy of our unconditional respect and love". Or is it "Don't think for yourself. The thinking has already been done". Or is it something else? Thanks for your thoughts.

After many conversations with faithful people about why they think in the way that they do, I think "faith" is a suspension of rationality in favor of wishful assumption. When people don't know the answers or don't like the answers, they make up their own.

OR
FAITH: The belief against all evidence that reality isn't actually what it is perceived to be.
OR

Seek to consciously to know something, recheck to make sure that it is true, resolutely translate it into action:
Learn and meditate about love, act to create harmony and unity among various people.

Faith in Jesus Christ entails obedience to his word. The devil believes is God. Faith involves obedience even when we don't understand the why.
