Sure it does. If you consciously 'lack' or deny something then you have a degree of certainty about it. This certainty is a vague form of 'faith'.
No, it certainly is not. The whole thing about faith is that there is no certainty, no proof, nothing but . . . dare I say - fantasy. I lack a T-bone steak right now. I *believe* the sun will rise tomorrow. That's not "faith," it's plain ol' reality. Overman, do have a boa constrictor coiled around your head right now? If not, does it take any *faith* at all to say so?
