"Faith" is the excuse people give when they don't have a good reason to believe something. If they had a good reason, they would offer that as justification for their belief, not "faith".

Faith is the deliberate refusal to think critically and the glorification of wilful ignorance that follows. Religion is the permission slip to set aside truthful thought.

EVERYTHING happens according to God's PLAN Christians will say.

But when SOMETHING tragic happens, the Christian says God gives us FREE WILL.

The age-old trick of constantly moving the goalposts.

Or the cop-out: God moves in mysterious ways his wonders to perform
