Is there a formal term for when someone believes something wrong, but the more proof that's shown against them, the more they believe it? Like how Candide's Pangloss twists every indication that his best of all possible worlds idea is nonsense into more proof that it's true.

Are you implying that the proof that God exists has been found?
