They come to you from who? God? Yourself? And if God then we're simply back to this issue on why you believe in him...without evidence again. So what if there can be no evidence? Why believe without it?
I believe in him without evidence because evidence is not anything to do with believing in him.
Only for you is evidence important... but then we're not talking about you... or are we???

No, because whether there can be evidence or not. The question is still why you would ever believe in anything without evidence. So why you would make an exception and believe in God, even though you haven't got any evidence. Whether there can be evidence or not, no evidence is no evidence. How can that ever be a good thing?
You didn't answer that then.
