I really don't give a shit about dictionary definitions of faith. Dictionary's can be inaccurate, and while I agree faith is belief in something without evidence, I also believe there is much more to faith than that. It is a personal thing acquired through personal experience, and unless one has faith, they cannot claim to understand faith. Because they obviously do not.
"How can I find something that has been proven false?" What exactly is it that has been proven false? God? I don't think so, Zeus, no one has ever proven God false and in my experience, I have more than enough personal evidence to convince myself that God is real.
I'm not trying to prove to you that God is real or that my religion is true. I am trying to explain how faith and God works, and how Christianity can be looked at from a different angle than the dim and inaccurate one that you hold. I am trying to give you a better understanding of these things so that our discussion can actually expand somewhere.
