Purely or partially. Although, I think that for something like God we should look at dimension, whether that will inevitably evoke a binaric system. But whatever.

Even if I could prove it, you would say that I needed proof that the proof was correct. So, there is no way to win with you. As I said, faith is belief without support. But there is a lot of support for the proposition that logic is the best way to find the truth. Therefore, logic does not depend on faith. And that is a proof I just gave you.

From Merriam Webster
Faith:
2 a (1): belief and trust in and loyalty to God (2): belief in the traditional doctrines of a religion b (1): firm belief in something for which there is no proof (2): complete trust

You can drum up support or evidence for anything, it will never constitute a proof as long as it allows for reality to falsify it, which it must since it concerns reality. There is a lot of evidence to support anything as long as you exclude the evidence which does not support it. As with the scientific method, a non existence of antithetical evidence does not constitute a proof, it is still falsifiable.

It is easy to win with me:either prove me wrong or admit you either do not know or that you are wrong.
