I didn't mean to target just the Abrahamic religions as the proponents of blind faith. I recognize that it happens within many religions as well as outside of religion. However, the Abrahamic religions have a huge influence over the world and do spread the idea of blind faith as a virtue.

Yeah I think Martin Luther summed up the Abrahamic viewpoint well when he said "Faith must trample under foot all reason, sense, and understanding."
