Hmm...I guess I see faith as the confidence to act on one's intuition even if reason dictates something else...so faith in a support to intuition (and reason) and not an alternative. I think you are making faith out to be an Other. Reason is male, intuition female and faith is the Other. I think the 3rd alternative is no more frightening or useless than the second. I think the 4th alternative is also useful, and the 5th...
