I'm not sure if what you mentioned is accurate. Faith, in terms of fact, is essentially a strong feeling or bias toward a subject, possibly supported by intellectual evidence. Intellectual evidence in turn has nothing to do with feelings. In contrast, a fact is something verifiable by our senses and part of reality. Many refer to faith as intuition, which further emphasizes that it is essentially a feeling. So, I believe you may be confusing terms, making your statement inaccurate for me.

@This Barbie Has OCD I made this statement, and I can relate to it. Are you implying that faith is the opposite of intellect? If so, why do faiths—whether Christian, Jewish, or Muslim—emphasize the biblical verse, "God is not a God of confusion but of peace" (1 Corinthians 14:33)? Faith is actually grounded in logic and intellect.

@This Barbie Has OCD I'm pushing back against your elitist perspective on people with OCD. They're not children and often have sharper intellectual judgment than both of us. Simply flag the post as a trigger. Furthermore, if you're trying to motivate, using incorrect terms can cause significant harm. Imagine someone believing that faith equals intellect—how would they cope with the guilt they feel? This isn't a debate; it's about seeking clarification, which you seem to overlook entirely.
