That is funny as Jesus allegedly said …John 10:37 If I am not doing the works of My Father, then do not believe Me. 38 But if I am doing them, even though you do not believe Me, believe the works themselves, so that you may know and understand that the Father is in Me, and I in the Father.”

You know what else is funny? Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

RE: Need an argument answered
I would bet this is the most likely scenario:

1) You present evidence that this argument is a load of shit, either by the fact that it works with the Quran and Moby Dick, and the fact that it's an argument from incredulity

2) He abandons it and moves on to another ad-hoc or prepared rationalization about "why he believes", which is also not why he believes

People don't believe for these bullshit reasons. You can cut them down all day and it makes no difference. These are "feel better" reasons after the fact.
