About This Quote
Faith is not something that goes against the evidence, it goes beyond it. The evidence is saying to us, 'There is another country. There is something beyond mere reason'. In other words, people have been misinterpreting what faith really means.
Faith does not mean blindly accepting something without any tangible proof to support it. Faith should come from a place of knowledge and understanding, which requires one to study and learn about a religion or a set of beliefs before trusting in them. Faith should go beyond the evidence and take one on a journey of exploration and discovery.
Once one has found what works for him or her, then one should remain steadfast in that belief no matter what other people say.
