Actually, to a lot of us. Faith and evidence do not make good cocktail.
Same sentiment then... only plural ;)
To one whose faith is based on evidence... tasty cocktail.Peace to you,

If there is evidence, faith is not necessary. I can watch my dog drinking water, and I don't have faith she is drinking the water, I can observe it. If Noni leaves a gift under the tree with my name on it, I don't have to have faith that Noni bought the gift for me, I have evidence. I can certainly misread evidence, but it is clear she put a gift under the tree with my name on it.
At some point, to have faith, one must decide to accept something without full evidence, or it is not faith.

If you are getting married and you have evidence that your mate has been trustworthy and faithful to you, then you can have faith in his vows of future fidelity, based on his prior record evidence. I have faith that google maps will get me where I'm going, based on the evidence that google maps are usually correct.

I think that is not a full understanding of faith, NC.
Faith is knowing... something that is not yet seen and/or not yet happened. Knowing that it WILL... because of the faith you have placed in the One who told you... because that One has proven themselves to be true and faithful.

Baby girl.....you can believe in what ever you want or how ever you want....that's the beauty of not being in a cult....
I believe there's a God....just not in a coventional type of the big guy...but I believe in a form of God

Faith is knowing... something that is not yet seen and/or not yet happened.
People with faith in something are wrong all the time. Faith is clearly not knowing, it seems more like believing.
