If evidence for god is in abundance, why is faith necessary?

[Neo-Scholastic]

By any logical standard if there was any evidence for the existence of god, that would make faith irrelevant.

To the OP: There are two definitions of faith. One is belief in the absence of evidence. The other is trusting a promise. Sometimes they are both in play. For example, suppose my friend has never before asked to borrow money from me. I have no evidence that he will repay the loan. However, I do trust him because of evidence of his good intentions in the past. And yes, there is sufficient evidence despite your delusional incredulity.
