What is the difference between religion and faith?
Answer:
Religion and faith are very different things. Religion is doing something religiously. Over and over again. Faith is believing. For an example believing in God you need faith because you can't really see him. But you know he is there. I have Faith that God is real. I don't know if this helps you at all, but I hope it does.

The difference between religion and faith is simply that one is supposed to lead to the other. Religion is expected to be the directions for finding faith. Faith is where the inner power comes from to make the impossible possible.

Faith is something anyone can have in anything. You have faith that your car will start in the morning, that your wife will not sleep with another man, that your plane wont crash into the ocean. It is a way of believing in the outcome of forces, events and sciences that we do not personally understand. Religion is an organised society of people who believe in the existence of (insert name of favourite god/gods here) and who go about their lives in a manner that would please that god/s. You have good reason to believe that your car will start (That reason being it always DOES start), therefore faith in the fact that it will cannot be considered BLIND faith. Faith in god/s, however is more or less unfounded and hence BLIND (wanting for a couple thousand years or more worth of evidence and a book full of poorly translated scriptures, as it does!) Faith per-se is an irrefutable prerequisite to religion, and in itself bears no fealty to the worship of any god or gods.
