To say such a thing, is to suggest that if i close my eyes: others can't see me. Yours is not the only point of view in this world... to think otherwise would be rather childish. Think about it Jon Paul... if i blindfold my eyes, put earplugs in my ears, drug myself numb, and put a clamp on my nose: My conscience experience would be of silence, darkness, numbness, and odorlessness... and a party most loud, bright, full of fragrance and feeling could be going on right next to me.
If i close my eyes, they can still see me.

Which arguments, Evidence vs. Faith? I probably missed your better statements while skim reading, but from what i did read: i have seen no argument that was sound, and few of which were valid.
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
