Here's a very similar statement:

"Those with faith do not want proof; they want the facility of blind
belief."

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Eloquor/message/2384?source=1

Another:

"Some people, for whatever reason, cannot or will not accept a
reasonable explanation. They prefer blind belief in paranormal to a
rational explanation."
