Characterizing faith as „consolation for the common folk“ sounds a bit elitarian. It sounds as if the speaker considers himself to be more intelligent than most other people.

But in any case, I consider it necessary for a rational person to be clear in his mind about what one does and why one decides to leap into faith - or refrains from doing so.
