According to what definition of faith? If you look at how the word faith is used in a Biblical sense (like analyzing the word based on context) there’s no implication faith is not evidence based results.

I would argue faith is ~synonymous with trust. Trust can be stupid, based on a house of cards or backed by solid reasoning.

In Christianity, faith is encouraged to be tested. (For instance, Paul in 1 Corinthians 15 says that Christians should be pitied if Christ didn’t raise from the dead. He was arguing for his readers to test the claim, not just do what sounded cool at the time.)
