And you know it's not. Right?
How do you know it's not good evidence?
I'm not Simon Moon, but I'll answer for myself what I find to be valid evidence for god(s).
Verifiable, repeatable & falsifiable evidence that can be verified by outside sources, repeated under controlled conditions and is able to be falsified.
The first 2 requirements - verifiable and repeatable - refers to simple conditions for phenomena or basic logic. The 3rd is the interesting one; falsifiable means that there should be an experiment/observation that would disprove the evidence, and when that is met, would be a condition under which your evidence could be dismissed or verified.

EDIT: Also, I've yet to find any theist, (or psychic, diviner, etc. for that matter) to produce any amount of the supernatural and that failed these 3 criteria.

^^^^^The scientific rules of evidence, beautifully explained. Verifiable, repeatable, falsifiable, qualitative, quantitative evidence. As we have responded, probably over a hundred times now, regarding what type of evidence we need for the existence of a deity. The only type of evidence I will accept.
