What is the difference between faith and morality?

I know the definitions of them both, but what distinguishes the two and what ties them together?

    How I would perceive this would be like this: Each of us are individuals, and living to or not living to our own morals (belief in what we perceive to be true for us). When an individual acts according to their own truth, faith is key to understanding more about their morales. With faith, Judgment is replaced with awareness/open mind. Thus faith in what comes from your actions based on your morals is the key to your own mastery.

    Faith is what you believe in

    Morality is what you do, Steal lie cheat and justify it via he deserves it.

    I have yet to find a moral Christian So my guess is they believe in god but there morality is way off base to whats right and wrong. Dave

    The quality of being in accord with standards of right or good conduct.

    A system of ideas of right and wrong conduct: religious morality; Christian morality.

    They're entirely different concepts. To complicated to go into fully but...

    Morality is part of most faiths.

    But faith doesn't have to be part of morality.

    I, for one, don't need home higher power, organization or body of peers to tell me what is right or wrong. I know.

    Morality: doing what acceptable by humans

    Faith: doing what accepted by the religion you rely on

    they're two completely different things. morality exists with or without faith, and vice versa.
