How therefore not belief? Faith is belief that lacks evidence, but it's still belief is it not? How can you trust or have faith in something without actually believing in it at all unless you're merely pretending?


Quote:2-My faith is based of reason , experience, and a set of subjective proofs that lean to a conclusion that a God is more liekely to exist than not.
'Subjective proofs' - how is that not what you believe to be your evidence for God's existence?


Quote:3-I'll restate it better here: I have no proof God exists as more than a thought or ideal that is verifiable and not subjective. I do believe God exists for other reasons. Is that stated a little better?

Yes, that makes more sense. And is a complete contradiction of the above when you have said you don't actually believe that God exists. When you said you have 'faith in God' but you don't believe he exists, that made no sense. Just as it makes no sense when fr0d0 says he believes God 'is' but he doesn't believe God exists. How can something non-existent be or do anything at all?
