Of course they have no evidence; if they did, it would be detectable and they wouldn't have to hide it from science. They claim to be detecting the undetectable, even by their own definition. Such people just don't seem to understand about the importance of evidence, and no matter how many times I go through it, we never make any progress.
Precisely.
If god was real, he would be capable of providing evidence for his existence. The fact that he doesn't provide stated evidence is due to an apologetic argument that is not based in reality. After all, faith is not evidence, and all any theist has is fallible faith.
