Secular humanism is a nonreligious worldview that embraces human reason, secular ethics, and philosophical naturalism while specifically rejecting religious dogma, supernaturalism, and superstition as the basis of morality and decision-making. It is based on the Western tradition of liberalism and Enlightenment thought. Secular humanists use compassion, critical thinking, and human experience to find solutions to human problems.

Religious faith is a concept that has been defined in various ways, from trust to the biblical definition found in Hebrews:
"Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen."
The elusive nature of its definition makes it unclear as to what religious faith truly is. Can anyone shed some light on its true nature? Furthermore, according to the bible, why should it be considered better evidence than things that can be seen?
I would think that's an oversimplification.
