What is the plural of consensus?
The plurual of consensus is just "consensuses"- per Wikitionary.
Should faith include doubt and questioning?
Absolutely. Faith and doubt are NOT opposites. Rather, faith depends on doubt to have meaning. It is probably wise to separate between faith (volitional certainty) and lack of doubt (cognitive certainty). Absolute cognitive certainty is unrealistic since we are finite beings limited in knowledge, reason, and experience. That is why Soren Kierkegaard described faith as the leaping of a chasm ("leap of faith"). Our knowledge and reason bring us to a point. But that point is not far enough. We see where we want to be, but our knowledge and reason is inadequate to get us there. This inadequacy is our doubt (normal and healthy recognition of our limitations). Faith chooses to act volitionally (of the will) in spite of our doubts. In the case of a theist, we in faith throw ourselves on the mercy of God... not because our minds are infinite enough to exclude all other possibilities than God. Rather faith accepts our inabilities, and acts despite these. In the case of an atheist, faith is still used, since an atheist is dogged by the same human limitations. He or she simply chooses to leap over the chasm of doubt to a different endpoint. Kierkegaard's book, "Fear and Trembling" is great (if a bit heavy especially towards the end). Never let doubt die... it is a healthy part of our humanity. But never let doubt incapacitate you in your quest for the truth.

Will a pilgrimage affect faith?
Not one single bit, in and of itself. God affects faith, and God does it as he chooses. He's free to use pilgrimages, but more often than not God probably considers them nuisances. A pilgrimage may affect emotions or knowledge. Faith is on a different plane altogether.
What relationship do rational and spiritual explanations have in religious life?
We are saved by faith (spiritual) and not of ourselves (rationality) lest any man should boast. Knowledge that is based solely on faith may possibly be supported by rationally derived knowledge, but it cannot be undone by refutations that come from rationally derived knowledge. I am talking about the most sublime faith, the faith that is one's salvation. We can't demand it, and we can't even seek it. Yes, there is the sinner's prayer, but faith is entirely God's act and not any of ours, "lest any man should boast". Whether or not God ALWAYS grants this faith to those who ask is for anothers to speculate upon. The basic truth from a faith perspective is that once in possession of this faith, the faith is seen and experienced as different from any natural faith that comes about by rational processes.People of faith see dedication to science and rationality as futile, but some of them don't 'get' that people who do not have faith cannot possibly see the world through the perspective of people who do. And arguing science or religion with such unfaithful will accomplish nothing; coming to faith simplythrough someone's rational argument is not possible; it comes from the Spirit, in whatever way the Spirit chooses to act.People dedicated to gaining knowledge through rational processes see 'faith based knowledge' as a pipedream at best, and some of them don't 'get' that trying to convince people of faith otherwise is a waste of time. No amount of facts and figures, however convincing, should be able to undo what is spiritually discerned.It all hinges on faith.
