Well, when it comes to faith in non-falsifiable things as deities, then, yeah, I believe that it would become a real phenomenon (but nothing to do with noumena!) A god to whom nobody prays is not a god at all. Of course, having complete faith in, say, being able to jump off a building and not die will not necessarily save you from dying, if your faith is not well founded. The universe is best seen as existing independently of us (we have greatest analytical power in presuming so) and as such we do have parameters to which we are all restricted. To try denying any of this is where the whole "delusion" conversation comes in...of course as to what is delusion and what is reality can be controversial. Power of the mind really is something but it isn't everything, methinks.
