Delusional is the very definition of faith, that being believing in something in the absence of or opposition to the best known facts.

Faith (or at least religious faith) is not somewhat delusional. It is extremely delusional.

delusion
1. an act or instance of deluding.
2. the state of being deluded.
3. a false belief or opinion: delusions of grandeur.
4. Psychiatry. a fixed false belief that is resistant to reason or confrontation with actual fact: a paranoid delusion.
Faith is completely delusional. It is belief without evidence.

When a blind man takes his friends word that his shirt is red, it's not really delusional. That is faith.

Optical delusions. Thinking you see something you don't really see.
Faith is just the first step. But faith without works is dead.
Only through personal spiritual experience, can one dissolve doubt and fear.

Not coherent with sustained truth. Creating a truth of your own especially while you are aware of a seperate truth. Convincing yourself a lie is the truth.
Those are delusions. The better question to ask is, are misunderstanding considered delusion?

No faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen.

Christianity follows the historical Jesus.
The keyword word is "historical." There is plenty evidence and reason to believe in Jesus. The key is you have to read.

Nope, faith is absolutely necessary to get your sins forgiven and to get into Heaven.
