For the Thinking Man.
You're saying spiritual "truths" are based on nothing but faith, while science is based on evidence, and then trying to equate strong faith with proof, or evidence.

That would be consistent with this study linking long-term religious belief in contradictory ideas to observable, measurable brain damage
