The quote you provided, talks about what people think.
As in: believers do not think of faith as belief without evidence.

You should really work on your reading comprehension.

If the position however was arrived at "by faith", then the person simply "decided" that that is what he was going to believe. That person doesn't care about evidence. So no amount of evidence will be able to persuade him, unless he decides he's suddenly going to care about evidence.
