My personal definition of faith is believing something in the absence of evidence and it is the sort of faith I strive to practice. However I know others who definitely practice their faith in spite of evidence. It is this latter that I regard as dangerous. But if one want's to make any sort of progress in the world the former definition is, I would argue, a necessity.
It's like that quote from the movie The Incredibles: "When everyone's super, no one will be."
