Posit: faith is submission.

Discuss.

(Yes, this is pertinent, and I do want others' opinions on the subject, preferably those of people who consider themselves to have religious faith.)

Yes, that's true.

...having thought about it some more, I should make clear that even when I trust someone enough to submit to their wishes, I still think about what they want me to do. It's never blind obedience. At most, I'll stop asking questions if they say "Please trust me, I'll explain when I can." So for me, choice is a constant part of belief, trust, faith, whatever. If I stop feeling like I have a choice, I leave, the end.
