One can even say the faith I put in God is the same faith people put in science.
You could also say that the Earth is flat. Just saying a thing does not make it true.
If you have to define faith in a way that makes it meaningless then there's a problem. When you can demonstrate that something is true using demonstrable facts then that isn't faith.
In my conversation with chat gtp it was made clear that subjective evidence IS evidence.
It just shows that you determine the trustworthiness of what is said by how well it agrees with your already held prejudices.
Atheists churches are the evolution of the way men think, they inherently do not get along, and that is the reason for war.
I find it fascinating that believers try to discredit atheists by making them look more like believers. It's the very definition of psychological projection.

Re: Science: Our Superior

My only comment is that saying that Science is my superior is like saying Oxygen is my superior and Nitrogen isn't.
There are many believers and creationists in these discussions who tacitly admit that science is superior to their beliefs. They do this when they try to discredit science by calling it a religion. Funny how you never see scientists trying to discredit Christianity by calling it a science.
