Ok, first off, I'm going to assume that by "you guys", you mean a certain few individuals on the forum, and not members of Christianity entirely, because that's horribly generalized and bias sounding.
Anyway. Is that not the way things are anyway? You do have to have faith in things, do you not? What true proof is there of most anything? When you go to the doctor, and he tells you you're sick and need a certain pill to get better, you have no proof in front of you that that pill will do anything to solve your sickness. But you have faith that the doctor knows what he's saying, and you take the pill.
Also, one thing that has helped to convince me of a higher being, would be just how perfectly everything on this planet seems to work together to make a functioning world. One could say this is just evolution, but still, the whole design seems just too amazing to be just a random chance that we'd all be here. That, along with the children of Fatima. In case you didn't know, they claimed that the Virgin Mother Mary came to them, and told them of three miracles. They told others of them, and they came true. One of which, was the day that the sun danced. The children predicted it, and then it came true, and they say that an estimated thirty thousand to one hundred thousand people witnessed the event.
Don't get me wrong here, I'm definitely not the most religious guy, I don't ever go to church, nor do I want to, and I don't even believe full on in the Catholic/Christian religions. I just believe in a higher being, not necessarily "God" or "Jesus", but something.
