The Immaculate Conception is an article of FAITH. Faith is belief that does not rest on logical proof or material evidence.

And then there is BLIND faith.

A belief that ignores logical proof or material evidence to the contrary.

‘A belief that ignores logical proof or material evidence to the contrary.’

That is the text book definition of the word faith. By definition faith is blind as their is no logical proof or material evidence.

Faith: Noun:
2.Belief that does not rest on logical proof or material evidence.
