Not empirical evidence, objective evidence. Evidence that can be reproduced, examined by others.
If all you've got are things inside tour head, you have no evidence, just thoughts, ideas, hypotheses.
Those thoughts are real things, but they are not necessarily about real things. Not without objective evidence.
Maybe your God is real, but I don't accept it without evidence. Your testimony is not evidence.

In what way do I resemble this Zombie Atheist? Is that an AF meme?
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
Science is not a subject, but a method.
