well, the definition of faith as I understand it is believing in something you cannot see. Therefore, I tend to believe it is the same thing. =)

Faith is believing in something, while at the same time understanding there's a chance your beliefs are wrong. For example, I have faith in my significant other to never cheat on me. At the same time, I realize he's only human, and is prone to mistakes. If asked, I would swear that my fiance would never cheat on me - but I don't entirely rule out the possibility that it could happen. Blind faith is believing in something without any intent to question your beliefs or consider they may be faulty. People with blind faith follow without question, people with faith follow their beliefs faithfully, albeit questioningly or open to the idea their beliefs could be faulty.

Hmm. I have faith in something I can't see, which is blind faith. I don't see how faith could differ though... if you've seen the thing you have "faith" in, do something, then it's not blind faith, but it's not really faith either - it becomes more respect.

actually there's no blind faith,meaning you don't have faith! God bless
