Ironically, people who claim to be religious and have "faith" are the first to question their beliefs.
If it is faith, why question it?

"Faith seeking understanding"
If you don't seek to understand your beliefs, you have no reason to have faith in it. However, it is only after the faith that you are able to understand those beliefs.

I don't question faith. I question things that are brought to me and use the faith I have in God to determine my actions. Faith is more than just an idea to me. Faith drives me. Faith, in a sense is unquestionable. My faith is not that God exists or doesn't exist, but my faith is that my actions will be guided by the grace of the holy spirit, and I will never stumble. When I have faith about this, I have never been proven wrong

To me faith is something that is not easy to have. People question faith, in my opinion, because they sometimes fear the outcome that it has; whether its good or bad. Religious people are the first to question it because they are probably just at a baby level in that area. In my opinion, the more you grow into your religion the better your faith will become.
P.S ---I LOVE your questions. :) lol...

The whole point of faith is that it lacks proof; it is merely a belief, and that is all. Since we are inclined to find proofs, then it is only natural to question our faith.
Questioning and returning to matters of faith are fundamental to all faith-based experiences.

Faith is not believing God would do anything
Faith is knowing that He will

Because in order to question your faith, you must first have it!
Those who decide to depend on reason can't "question their faith"--they don't have any.
