I would also add that believing a person's directions to a pharmacy is a "smaller" issue than accepting a ghost story or resurrection. The standards of evidence are different given what it specifically is that you are asked to believe. Accepting the existence and location of a pharmacy is not as hard to believe as a ghost in your attic.
"The way to see by faith is to shut the eye of reason." Benjamin Franklin
