In response, do not provide any garbage hearsay about what you have witnessed. You cannot prove that so it is not evidence. If you can’t provide proof, tell me why I should have allowed you to take offense at my signature.
Anyways, as usual in conversations in these circumstances….
Hello, meet brick wall.

I'm not sure what you mean here... "we"? I was under the impression you are not religious, and/or don't possess faith. If this impression is correct, how then are you able to make a comment such as this? Are you speaking for every human?
Speaking
purely personally, my faith is based on understanding, and is the result of knowledge. Without understanding and knowledge I would have no faith.
Surely I should comment on what MY faith is rather than you. My religion, would be a series of actions. My Christianity is a faith, a relationship, not a religion per se, as it is not based on works and actions.
Therefore, just as in any other relationship, knowledge is what increases the relationship. Knowledge of self, of the second party and knowledge of the nature of relationship itself.
As for the brick wall, that insult is both incorrect and uncalled for. One does not need to agree to demonstrate either comprehension of, nor open assessment of opposing ideas. Unless you are dictating that only your methods and conclusions are valid.
