If evidence for god is in abundance, why is faith necessary?

Then in what way do they 'believe'? You have to at least be convinced that you know or have reasonable certainty about something to believe it. Or are we fucking about with definitions again? Faith being a belief, implies knowledge warranting said belief (as shitty or spurious as it may be). I don't know what the fuck you're talking about otherwise. If they don't actually have faith, and just say they do, then they're just morons. Still don't deserve respect for it.
Religions were invented to impress and dupe illiterate, superstitious stone-age peasants. So in this modern, enlightened age of information, what's your excuse? Or are you saying with all your advantages, you were still tricked as easily as those early humans?

There is no better way to convey the least amount of information in the greatest amount of words than to try explaining your religious views.
