You would put your faith first, giving it a stronger priority and figuring that there must be some reason that Dawkins is wrong. Maybe the devil is planting false evidence, maybe the scientists are in an evil anti-god conspiracy, or maybe like Wendy in the video, you can just pretend over and over that the evidence is not being presented and instead keep asking where it is.
Faith does not listen to rational anything. It takes pride in not listening.
I'm really shitty at giving kudos and rep. That's because I would be inconsistent in remembering to do them, and also I don't really want it to show if any favouritism is happening. Even worse would be inconsistencies causing false favouritisms to show. So, fuck it. Just assume that I've given you some good rep and a number of kudos, and everyone should be happy...
