Where faith is concerned, remember that it is your faith in the US Government (assuming you are in the US) that transforms an elaborate print on paper into money. As it isn't backed by a precious commodity, it is inherently worthless. Collective faith makes the system work.
To me, science and philosophy, the 2 things normally used to refute the idea of God actually prove it better than anything else. Science and philosophy are searches for universal laws and principles. What makes these principles universal, i.e., applicable in all instances? If there were no intelligent design, these laws and principles would perhaps be better described as leaky abstractions, as opposed to concepts which always apply. Think of things like pi, the golden ratio etc, which are so oft-repeated in nature, science and engineering. Seems far-fetched that all this 'just happened.' Supreme intelligence was at work.
BTW, although I am not a Christian, I am the son of a Minister and a Christian woman, so I am biased.
