Indicator sentences: Where do they mention faith or religion in any way? They use the word believe, sure, but belief is hardly unique to religion.

Negotiation parts: I can believe that my parents never lied to me; that's not a religious view. Because it is a strongly held belief without, or in opposition to the evidence. That is the definition of a faith based belief. You don't need faith if you have evidence. To say something is "religiously believed" doesn't require actual formal religious doctrine. It is a common phrase in English..... That just means they believe something. Again, that doesn't make it religious. I am sorry you are not well versed in this common English phrase. Here is a dictionary to help you out: http://dictionary.reference.com/ I think it's odd that you use poor grammar to lecture me about the use of language. But it isn't odd that you didn't add any substance to comment, in fact it is typical for people to get nitpicky when they are wrong. I can edit my post... are you willing to edit your beliefs? Are you willing to answer every question I posed to you in the very first comment instead of only insisting that the OP has a religious belief? Are you willing to tell me how it's only and specifically religious to have a belief that isn't backed up by a specific fact? Is it religious to say "I believe that america will be around in 500 years" or "I believe that my parents love me" or "I believe that things will turn out all right"? Are you willing to actually discuss things instead of just downvoting people for disagreeing with you? I doubt it. Have the last comment if you like, and a nice day.
