I think a common misconception with religion is that faith is it's most important aspect.

Something that amazes me about humankind is the billions of people that have believed in a higher power, in some way, shape or form, throughout history. There is something to learn about human nature and desire when considering how many cultures have came to the conclusion that supernatural powers do exist without any communication between them.

I cannot grasp how so many people believe in something they've never seen. It's amazing actually. I don't mean to sound condescending.
