I have … found it necessary to deny knowledge, in order to make room for faith

 Faith seems to involve some kind of venture, even if talk of a ‘leap of faith’ may not be wholly apt. 

It is thus widely held that faith goes beyond what is ordinarily reasonable, in the sense that it involves accepting what cannot be established as true through the proper exercise of our naturally endowed human cognitive faculties—and this may be held to be an essential feature of faith. As Kant famously reports, in the Preface to the Second Edition of his Critique of Pure Reason: ‘I have … found it necessary to deny knowledge, in order to make room for faith

‘Faith is when you believe something that you know ain’t true 

look towards a model of faith that understands faith’s cognitive content as playing some other role than that of an explanatory hypothesis of the same kind as a scientific explanatory hypothesis.
