No no no no no no no no no. No. This is not about persuasion, this is about intellectual honesty. If you expect people to understand why you believe in something, you'd better damn sure be able to understand why yourself. Faith is also a crap answer since it basically means belief in something without evidence or proof. You can believe that a leprechaun is mowing your yard while Santa is giving you a Swedish massage - but if you want others to understand your beliefs, or even believe you, you need proof. Plain and simple.
