Quote:
Faith is the act of believing in something you know is not true.



You can't set up an experiment that empirically proves the existence of love, yet I think all of us would agree that love exists.


If you object to the notion that God is an old man with flip-flops and a robe who sits in the clouds and hurls lightning bolts, no wonder you scoff at Christianity. That is a cartoonized misunderstanding of Christianity, and I object to that same idea of God.

According to Christian theology, God is love.

We believe in love because we see irrefutable evidence of it, even though we can not see it as a standalone entity.

Having said that, here is the Christian definition of faith:
"faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen"
