In my experience, with no birthright of faith, I came to define blind faith differently than you are saying. It was not handed down to me, and so faith is the moment I chose to believe in what I could not prove by logic; therefore trusting in a realm which my mind, however keen, could not see into nor fathom, nor comprehend.

For me, faith makes sense and is logical, based on what I see and understand of the world/nature. I know we all come to it differently, and that is okay. Those who strive are worth knowing.
