I will repeat again for the hard of hearing. Show us just one piece of evidence, not opinion, evidence. To date, not one single theist has offered any shred of evidence. The only thing presented by every single theist is opinion, anecdotes and hearsay. Well, they are all full of shit. Santa told me so and the Tooth Faerie agrees. (can't prove they don't exist, can you? i have presents under the tree and a dollar under my pillow. that's more evidence than you have for god.)
Science has a plethora of evidence to the contrary of theist belief systems. Granted, evidence is not proof, but it is all we have until a theist steps up to bat.
I do not stand by "extraordinary claim requires extraordinary evidence". I will settle for just one tiny, eensy, weensy, teeny, weeny, shred of evidence.
So as they say back home, "Put up or shut up".
You make people miserable and there's nothing they can do about it, just like god.

Science is like a blabbermouth who ruins a movie by telling you how it ends. There are some things we don't want to know. Important things.
