A question for Christian fucktards: Why do you morons think faith is a virtue?

Faith is required when there is no evidence. Why do Christians think faith is a virtue?

"Faith, no one word personifies the absolute worst and most wicked properties of religion better than that. Faith is mind-rot. It’s the poison that destroys critical thinking, undermines evidence, and leads people into lives dedicated to absurdity. It’s a parasite regarded as a virtue."
-- PZ Myers, University of Minnesota biologist

"Religion is the antithesis of science, an anesthetic for the mind that disables critical thought and encourages the acceptance of inanity as fact, and wishful thinking as evidence."
-- PZ Myers

The Christion answers were moronic. However some normal people, aka atheists, answered the question.

"Christian faith is self-serving egotism pretending to hold the Higher Moral Ground. That's no virtue!"

“Absolute faith corrupts as absolutely as absolute power.”
---Eric Hoffer

I had to look up Eric Hoffer. He had an interesting life.

The same person recommended this book by Eric Hoffer: "Years ago I read his, 'The Temper of Our Time'. WOW!"

Another excellent answer:

"Faith is worthless, there's no way to distinguish the truth based on Faith since it can lead you to believe in any nonsense. You are correct, faith is belief when you have no evidence to justify your belief. It is gullibility."

More quotes about faith from someone else:

"FAITH: Confident belief in the truth, value, or trustworthiness of a person, idea, or thing. Belief that does not rest on logical proof or material evidence."

"FAITH: Not wanting to know what is true." - Friedrich Nietzsche

"Faith consists in believing when it is beyond the power of reason to believe."
- Voltaire
