Faith without any reason vs Faith without any evidence (bible, believing, exist)

[bUU]

Evidence is one path to reason; it is not the only path. There are instances of faith without evidence that are not faith without reason.

That's crazy...

Faith is the substance of thing(s) hoped for

The substance is the reason for believing something is true.

Faith is the evidence of thing(s) not seen.

The evidence is the reason(s) that for our hope in the thing being true.

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Heb 11:1
