“Well, it comes down to faith.” How often do I hear that as if it’s some kind of legitimate bottom line in disputes between believers and atheists?

This is the definition of faith: belief in something for which there is no proof. How is being in possession of this quality in any way noteworthy, impressive or even consequential? And please, spare me the nonsense about atheists “having faith too”.

The awesome atheist girl in this clip sums this up more eloquently:

The repetitions of “ouch, ouch, ouch” you hear in the background are pretty representative of the response you get if you say something like this in real life. Also, “that’s rude” (which received applause from the audience). But Jesus. Since when is “feeling offended” a counterargument?
