Statistical probability, which is the essence of the universe.
Whether you realize it not, every decision you make is based on neither complete faith or complete doubt, but rather a statistical probability equation.
The factors that lead to the final decision are infinite, and the more inquisitive we are about the validity of our factors and also the acceptance of as many factors as possible leads to the most statistically probable (and therefore correct) assumption.
So, to believe in god, or miracles or ghosts one must analyze the probability of such things existing. By definition, if it is a probability question both extremes are possible, and so it must be accepted that god can exist and also may not exist.
Once that is cleared up, then you determine why you find it statistically probable or improbable that either thing exists.
A factor that leads to improbability is the lack of scientific proof about supernatural things. A factor that may lead to probability is a logical assertion that a lack of scientific proof is specifically engineered by the powers that be to test the faith of individuals.
etc.
When both parties are willing to accept that their assertions are nothing but statistical probabilities, and that they are both willing and searching for as many factors as possible to qualify their assumption, and that they both accept that either possibility is possible, the truth can always be determined and both parties will definitely reach a mutual conclusion.
