People of real faith have had a personal experience with their god that provided them with the faith that God exists. Those that have not had this experience will never have real faith.
There is an old military saying...there are not any atheists in a foxhole when under fire.
I know a person that was shot 13 times by a German machine gunner during the second world war. They were all upper body hits including his face. He survived the incident and had about two years of reconstuctive surgery afterwards. He had a personal experience with his God during this period of time and has been a man of real faith ever since.
BTW...many people of faith do not necessarily attend church or have a fundamentalist belief in the bible. They do not necessarily correlate.
