Faith more important than Reality?
#1
Faith more important than Reality?
Many claim to say that Faith is stronger than things in the Real World. Like when Jesus in the bible states that with Faith, nothing will be impossible to you, and that it's stronger than things in real life like facts, proof and evidence. Is this statement true? Contradictory? Fallacial? What is it really?

I'll give an example. A Christian gets told that the bible is self-destructive and the person responsible for telling that Christian that the bible is self-destructive shows to that Christian the inconsistencies in the bible that proves it being self-contradictory. Then, the Christian claims that "It doesn't matter what you think. With my Faith in the bible, there are no inconsistencies." (This was part of a real-life arguement between me and this one christian)

Either they are stubborn, ignorant, or just plain-out stupid.
