Faith is not required. Desire is sufficient.

Desire is a phenomenon of the mind and carries the same limitations. Faith is something else entirely. To each his own - to me, a man without faith is a dead man.

Faith deals with the transcendent, what inherently cannot be grasped by mind. To have faith is to be oriented by reality beyond the confines of mind, and the endless turnings of it's attatchments.

This is well said, unfortunately reason pretty much fails to touch this, so I won't try. Suffice it to say that I have lived life as a faithless man, and life was never on my side. Faith restored something which I was longing for, for years.
