That faith is needed in the religious community reasonably means that zero evidence is in existence to prove god is real.

Cause it is faith in God, not faith without reason.  Even those who where their talked about their faith.  Why would that be?

I know more than one person who holds their faith in god with no reason, or even in the face of reason.  These people are, to a man, shining exemplars that the rest of you fail by comparison to.  It's amusing, to me at least, that I respect these people, I don't give them an ounce of shit.  The rest of you get nothing but the contempt borne of disappointment and failure.

They possess faith and integrity, you..apparently, had to choose between the two.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
