You dismiss it as blind obedience, ignorance, naivete, etc. Faith that you will get up in the morning. That by the blessing and ability God gave you to get up, go to work, provide for your family, come home safely, and love your family. That God will provide that internal moral compass to practice the Golden Rule. To recognize that the blessings that one has come from God.

Offering proof against something does prove a thing, it proves that we as humans do not know all that which this world is, that we all but small insects only going about our daily tasks and unaware of the larger world around us.
No claims that everything we know of the universe is true 100%, but we dont say that which we do not know is by the divine work of god.
Of course god is beyond reason. your place your faith in something that by all the laws of physics and life itself should not exist. by the very means of this universe, this god of yours does not exist. but than to say he does discreditcs everything else you can say. if god can exist without proof, than why should we offer proof for evolution of the origins of man, why should i offer proof when i say i have an alien locked away in my basement. we offer proof because we should not go about life believing every little thing we are told, without a meaning to our lives. you believe having this faith in your god gives you meaning, a purpose, but your wrong. the only purpose of our live is that which we give ourselves. we shouldnt be going through life never questioning that which were told, never living for today.
You wake up in the morning and thank god, you eat breakfast in the morning and thank god, that promotion at work, that new car, and that paycheck. you thank god for those material things in your life and never thank yourself for the hard work in your life that got you that. You faith gives credit to everything good in your life to god, does that not seem at all a little wrong in your life. Than why not everything bad, why is it your fault when you mess up, when someone else messes up. when you wife leaves you or you get a bad grade in school. why is god not there to take the blame, why does your faith not protect you. Faith is blind ignorance, i do not believe one should be completely surrounded by faith wihtout proof for it is only a road to the end without meaning.
