Its been stated several times: demonstrable evidence and valid/sound logic.
I'll bet there are many supernatural claims (alien abductions, existence of Jinn, crystal healing, shapeshifting, etc, etc) that you disbelieve for the exact same reason why we disbelieve that a god exists. Lack of demonstrable evidence and valid/sound logic.
You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.
