I wish you could try and understand what is written. Did I not list faith first, please check it out and let me know.
By convince I meant "confirm" (as in confirmation bias)
With enough faith you can lead yourself to believe anything. Confirmation bias follows.
Just curious, but as to the now atheists former theists who had faith for a long time and found nothing, how would you respond? (and given your justification, is it falsifiable, or an arbitrary one like saying they did something wrong without specifying what?)
