Since the text is supposed to be about supernatural faith, and the main subject is mentioned several times in the first dozen paragraphs, I would have thought we'd come across a definition of the term, but no.

Instead, we are told a number of things about what RatzBerg refers to as "faith" and none of them sound orthodox.

For example, we are told that, "faith 'sees' to the extent that it journeys, to the extent that it chooses to enter into the horizons opened up by God’s word." So faith does not “see” facts, such as God’s nature etc. Instead, faith is really being equated here to a kind of infused spirit of prophecy which every Christian is given, and which then guides each Christian individually in his journey through life. This is some kind of Pentecostalism, which is unsurprising when we recall what else we know about Bergo.

Let's see what the various trad commentators have to say.

We can take this sentence by synecdoche for the whole encyclical:Cf. condemned proposition:An some more gobbledygook:Is he saying our contemporaries are all accompanied by faith‽

A concise, Baltimore Catechism-like encyclical would be very good, especially for our news-byte culture. In fact, here's what the Baltimore catechism itself says about faith, which Lumen Fidei never said:I agree with John Vennari's criticisms about the lack of mentioning the traditional definition of faith and how "It is a non-Scholastic document, not written according to the traditional Roman school. It is more in line with the wordy style of Ratzinger, von Balthasar and other ‘new school’ theologians."

It is not simply a "non-Scholastic document". It is an "incomprehensible document" that is not capable of having any objective meaning. Any suggestion as to the meaning of any particular sentence, paragraph, or section is conjecture. I doubt even the authors really know what they are trying to say. They simply do not believe in any God higher than themselves.
