Can someone who accepts something on faith really care if what they believe is true?

If someone accepts something on faith and not evidence, then how can they know whether or not something is true?

If they can't then they cannot really care if their beliefs are true.

So if someone has faith in a loving god, they wouldn't care if he turned out to be a dick?

The stories in the Bible kind of make God sound like a dick.

Side: No

I don't think that most Christians believe in Old Testament God, or they think it was OK for him to be a dick given the circumstances.

Side: No

I do think we are using the word care in a different way. Of course they may be upset if their faith is wrong, but if they accept it on faith in the first place truth isn't high on their agenda, if you understand my point. That is what i was meaning by the word care.

If you can think of a better word, tell me because I couldn't while I made this debate.

Side: No

I'm complete nihilist - nothing s true. I don't care if something is true or not I only care if it is good for improving life. Even if there is truth, I doesn't matter to us. I believe that it is only us who should proclaim if something is true or not. There is no objectivity

Side: No
