faith - Belief that does not rest on logical proof or material evidence is not something that should be encouraged.
why are people proud of the fact that they sometimes arise at beliefs without a logical reason to do so?

"Faith is only illogical when it is placed in the wrong thing."
you may get lucky and be right, but it is still illogical

"Just look around you, there is proof everywhere. Not only that, God has worked some miracles in my life and blessed me many times over. Isn't that proof?"

Faith DOES rest on proof, you seem to not get that important point.
Even the smartest person (recorded) in the world (Einstein) acknowledged the creation must have been from something much more powerful and wise than some silly big bang theory. You know that something that goes bang actually destroys, right?
Just look around you, there is proof everywhere. Not only that, God has worked some miracles in my life and blessed me many times over. Isn't that proof? I certainly think so.

And you'll notice that this illogical faith is always portrayed in a good light in popular culture and fiction, while rejection of an entity/phenomenon for which there is no proof (in the realm of religion) is invariably painted in a sad, gloomy, misguided light.

Faith flew planes into buildings. Does much more need to be said?

Faith and worship of anything Imaginary cannot be a good thing.

Because keeping oneself from rational thinking is more convenient.
And causes less responsibility.

"How can faith be seen as a good thing?"
When it is seen as confidence
