Faith is believing without objective evidence. Yet if there is evidence of a possibility then there is no faith involved.

  I wouldn't say that faith is believing without objective evidence. It's believing without certainty

    The Christian bible (Hebrews 11:1) and Merriam Webster appear to disagree [0]. [0] https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/faith https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/faith

      The most relevant definition (i.e. the only one that states anything about evidence) from your link seems to agree: > 2.b. firm belief in something for which there is no proof With respect to the Christian Bible reference, I don't read it as saying there's no evidence for what they believe; I think you'd have a hard time finding a Christian who does.
