Koonsaia 1. Does faith HAVE to be blind? No.2. Would God, a fair being, really make it so impossible to believe in him if he existed? Especially if everything he created for us is believable to us only because of the proof that it is there. It's not impossible to have faith.3. Is there any sort of proof behind YOUR faith? Well there is proof of the Bible's historical reliability and accuracy. Take for instance historians have done the Bibliographical Test, Internal Test, and External test. And don’t forget to mention Aristotle’s Dictum accounts for it. The New Testament was finished in about 100 A.D. now the earliest complete copies we have are from 350 A.D. big time gap right? But during those 250 years over 24,000 manuscripts were made and are in complete harmony and identical to the NT we have today. Now comparing that with The Iliad, which has the second most manuscripts (643) being after the NT, I would trust the accuracy and authenticity of the NT more than The Iliad. So it’s completely logical (and I didn’t even go into detail or start to mention the OT as well, or mention the archeological evidence) but the other factor is faith, you can’t make someone believe something. Alas I must go to gymnastics practice. I bid you adieu
