FAITH is what you use when the evidence tells what you don't want to be true.

Nope. You didn't have faith at all. You had trust that the Sun would rise and that trust was based on the evidence that it has always risen in the past. If you say that you have faith that the sun will rise tomorrow you are actually saying that you are hoping it will do so even though there is no evidence that it has ever done so before. That's what faith is...the belief that something is true even when there is no evidence that it is. We have sufficient evidence that the Sun rises each morning...wouldn't you say?

I am totally shocked!
I believe you need to have a little discussion with rifleman and the other folks that like to abuse the use of common language....surely you know that the sun has NEVER risen!
