Faith is really hard to explain with words because faith isn't necessarily just one thing. I guess you can say that faith, generally, is something you you have or you don't have (as many have said already)...but I personally belive that you can manipulate yourself into beliving and not beliving - depending what you're trying to convince yourself of. I'm not saying that's what people do, I say that's what some poeple do.
Anyway...if you have a faith and practice a religion I wouldn't at all say it's a crutch to get through life. Because it's not as easy as you think to have a faith and a religion. Not at all.

How can you be agnostic but observe and celebrate Islam? You either believe in it or you don't. No point sitting on a fence. The point is my choice. Secondly, read what I said about tradition/culture. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traditional_Islam

I am Serbian Orthodox Christian. I believe the New Testament & find inspiration in it. I haven’t read it all, just bits and pieces hear & there. I only really became religious about two years ago & I’ve been making it to church about 15 times a year. I go for Christmas, Easter, Slava and then another 10 or so occasions to pray, ask for forgiveness & take my mind to a better place. Church also honestly has the most respectable & best people & the best girls.

Actually, I more meant best looking girls. But anyway, I’ve never really been attracted to sweet innocent girls at all. Really can't stand the sheltered types actually. Always preferred feisty opinionated girls.

Actually, arsenije has a point. In SERBIAN Orthodox Churches, when you go on Christmas and Easter (when literally just about every Serb goes to Church), the place is just swimming with hot pussy.

Atheist, but I used to always pretend to my teachers in Germany that I was a catholic zealot, that way I was excused from school on any catholic holy day ;D judge me for my evil, but It was a sweet unholy deal

baptised catholic -> converted to orthodox -> Now pretty much agnostic, but I definitly do believe something is out there.
Probably the same entity that represents every religion on this planet, while we kill each other on what his name is...
