religion

A belief in something that doesn't exist, held by multiple followers.

Feminism is my religion. I believe in privilege, patriarchy, and rape culture, even though I know these things don't exist.

Faith

Belief without evidence. Instead of evidence, someone who has faith in something might profess a strong personal conviction, private revelation, a particular upbringing, a feeling, or a personal anecdote.

I have faith that my cat, which has been missing for two years, is still alive and has found a new, comfortable home.
