I mean, I believe in always telling the truth. But how would we know what we found was real? Not somehow planted or something. I wouldn't know if I could trust the evidence to be real.

Even if Chirstianity died, the truth about how we should live will still be the same. The intention of Christianity is good. The commandments are laws of nature. Many churches are for profit, but they are usually easy to spot, its a few rotten loud mouthed eggs give all Christians a bad name.
There is no real danger in telling the truth, even if it rocks your foundation of reality. You practice christianity to fufill your higher purpose, you learned valuable lessons from the teaching of the scriptures, and even if it was proven wrong, why change it if its working for you? Nothing could take that away, if you have faith in your lifes purpose.
Hope you feel better.

You have faith that the sun will come up tomorrow. Its easy. You have faith that the US will exist at least one more day. Its easy. You have faith in all kinds of things because they have demonstrated their reliability. You even have faith that thieves will steal, murderers will murder and so on.
Jesus was talking about that kind of thing when he spoke of faith. Because of what the people saw and heard, the verifiable truth, they could have faith in what Jesus said about things they could not see and of things to come. Jesus was reliable. Jesus carried the juice. That is why he is so frequently remembered today. Jesus was a true King and deliverer of the people (from delusions for those who turned to Him). Never mind that the people of the denominations believe a lie that was spawned by the council of Nicea in 325 AD. Now people have faith in an execrable lie made up by the clergy and yet they can see the truth in Jesus words as well. The truth has been mixed with the lie and people persuaded to believe things that will never happen, nor should they ever happen. The trinity, the virgin birth (as understood by most christians) and the physical resurrection are all corruption from the religion of Nimrod. The religion of Nimrod was wed to Christianity at the council of Nicea. How is it that people can embrace a lie and the truth and not know the difference? Tradition, sheep like trust in the corrupt shepherds, the clergy and laziness. Used to be only the nobles and priests could read or investigate. Now its all wide open for the inquisitive mind.
His mission was to announce the gospel or good news of the Kingdom of God. Those who followed His instructions received Him on His return on the clouds of confusion existing here on this plane. He came like a thief in the night to take the jewels who were waiting for Him. They were saved by their understanding of what he told them and their willingness to investigate with their own minds. No hocus pocus involved. No breaking the laws of the universe. No blind faith in something that will never ever happen.

You're not responsible for the belief's of others. I believe as a Christian I am called to spread the word, His word, not mine. Truth is one of the names of Jesus - 'I am the way and the truth and the life...' Jn 14:6. If I tell people about Him, He will take care of the rest.
I'm not worried about 'faith killing evidence'. This world is God's handiwork, so it's rigged to be descriptive of Him.
