Isn't faith just that: a state in where you believe into something 100%? If you accept flaws and consider that your target of devotion might not be true, or otherwise question it,it's no longer faith,


Isn't faith actually, by definition, believing in something even though there is no proof, and even though there is doubt, and even though there are logical flaws?

Dictionary.com has this for its 2nd definition of faith:
2.	belief that is not based on proof:


So it seems that faith doesn't mean 100% blind devotion...you can still consider other possibilities. In fact, if you permitted yourself to consider flaws in the target of your devotion, and believed in it anyway, wouldn't that in fact mean that you had even more faith?
