Hi Craig Weinberg
Faith can be expressed as a belief, but faith itself is inner trust,
confidence, etc.
Faith
Noun:Complete trust or confidence in someone or something.
Strong belief in God or in the doctrines of a religion, based on spiritual
apprehension rather than proof.

Leibniz would say, "If there's no God, we'd have to invent him
so that everything could function."

Hi Bruno Marchal
The shared part of religion (or science) is called belief(s).
They are exclusively in the fom of words.
For example words from the Bible, and the Creeds.
The personal or private part of religion is called faith.
It is not belief, for it is wordless, is more like trust or motivation.
Religion trusts its creeds, science trust the laws of physics etc.
It sounds like you are talking about the particular forms of religion though.
In some other traditions, faith can be the public proclamation in words and
belief is the privately expressed as wordless.
