Good faith corresponds reasonably well with facts or laws of life. Bad faith is something speculated in by those who endorse it to "fish" people and make "herd animals" out of many of them - more or less. Conformity may be ill when a faith helps great bosses to "cope by the legs" of underlings. Many proverbs give evidence of it, and narcissism appears to be a result of faith astray in some.
In order to evolve good faith by decent sayings and standards that breed health
and not corruption, it helps to measure a lot, preferably at the beginning. And here is in
essence what scientists search for - good measuring methods, devices and plans.

To rob the faith of persons could be good - if their faith was very bad for them and
something far better is put in its stead. It depends.All the same and for all that you may feel that you have been wronged. That may come to light at a later time. In the meantime, to be sensibly, well guarded may not be due to any lack of deep, inner faith - but it could show your faith works best that way while you falter along, hoping to gather the largest heaven-fit fruits you know of. Sage Words
In a Sicilian fairy tale on this archive section we are informed how to progress
by accepting others to build up wrong faith in rich people so that they think more highly
of us than we are used to - and then the snowballs start rolling. It is an alarming fairy
tale "recipe". [See a Sicilian folktaleIn the history of Christianity too, such "feats" have been observed. One of the reasons for the reformation, was the misuse of faith by the papal clergy, who traded away absolution for money, in order to get mighty buildings and power. They played on guilt. Besides, there is the usual garbled talk by imagery and allegory to raise faith in "things unseen" without even a remote control in those who succumb to it by projecting an inborn, innate, innocence onto fancied realms and figures, it seems. Those in power tend to use means like these, religious and other ones, to further worldly ends.
