When Christians confuse an explanation with an argument (onlysky.media)

FTA:

There’s a difference between (1) explaining how you see things or how your worldview fits together and (2) making an argument with evidence to convince me to adopt your worldview. Said another way, the two options are explaining how you see it (explanation) vs. how I should see it (argument). Apologists sometimes focus on (1) and forget that the words coming out of their mouths are backed by zero evidence.

When christians are taught that their faith should be treated like fact and then they glorify faith without evidence there's going to be some pretty big logic gaps.
