      That’s a linguistic bait-and-switch. Your example has nothing to do with religious faith as a basis for conviction.

          You’re not convincing anyone by misusing words.

          Here, let me demonstrate: I have hard evidence that God doesn’t exist. My evidence is faith.

            My evidence isn’t faith. My faith is based in historical fact.
