You are making the same mistake he did. "Blind faith", as religious 
people describe it implies that a thing simply **is**, and that the very 
act of testing it, or trying to find an explanation, is sinful and/or 
destructive. After all, how can it be blind, if you can prove it via 
evidence? That they can't do this either is hardly the point, its the 
definition they insist on, and they will deny to their last breath that 
its not valid, whether they evidence you provide suggests its true, or 
false. To them, it doesn't matter, its simply ***always*** true. Its 
this very cognitive dissonance and incomprehensible mind twisting 
warping of logic and reality that led several people I talk to on 
science sites to conclude that faith, as the religious insists on 
defining it, is poison, and got them looking for answers "outside" the 
faiths they where once in. At which point they realized that the people 
around them where, if anything, crazier than they previously thought 
they might be. lol
