You’re relying on a very narrow, popularized definition of faith as ‘belief without evidence.’ That’s not how serious philosophers, theologians, or even the Bible define it. In philosophical and religious contexts, faith is better understood as trust grounded in reasoned consideration—the best conclusion one can reach given available evidence, even if absolute certainty is impossible.

Belief in God is not a leap into the dark; it’s a reasoned conclusion based on cumulative evidence: cosmology, consciousness, morality, historical testimony, and personal experience. It’s more like trusting a doctor or an engineer: you may not have absolute proof, but you do have reasoned grounds for confidence.

Equating all faith with blind wishful thinking is a caricature—it ignores the rational deliberation that religious and philosophical traditions have emphasized for millennia.
