Some may say wishful thinking, confirmation bias, and faith are all one and the same.
And you are right. Everyone has these. Technically the only thing you can know with certainty is that your consciousness exists due to the impossibility of disproving your mind to yourself ( any evidence you are presented must be understood in some way by your mind, thus any evidence that attempts to disprove the minds existence is flawed by default. ) So we all take a very small amount of faith in assuming the world we live in is real and not a dream.
It all comes down to intellectual honesty. How much faith are you willing to admit that you have, and how willing are you to accept that not all leaps of faith are equal?

You two should really consider just letting bygones be bygones. From my perspective it seems pretty apparent that neither of you are getting any of your points across to each other.
