Faith (n.) is ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠not the kind of thing that is ever in need of evidence. To look for evidence for faith seems to leave it looking even weaker than it would if it stood, alone and unsupported, all by itself.

Faith (n.) is ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠the kind of thing that, by definition, should need miracles to help shore it up or to reassure the weak of faith.

Faith (n.) is ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠at its most toxic and dangerous point not when it is insincere and hypocritical and corrupt but when it is genuine.

Faith (n.) is ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠in no need of explanation or evidence. It serves to fill the unbridgeable void between evidence and the entire lack of it.
