I'd say the claim of a creator/designer is pretty extraordinary. AAA, you admit that you require what you consider to be scientific evidence in order to accept such a claim yourself, so I think it's safe to say you'd agree with me here.
Now...definitions of this creator's identity, disposition, attributes, behaviors, and history are exponentially MORE detailed; MORE complicated, and are therefore more extraordinary than simply the claim that he exists. It follows that the evidence required to accept such claims should be at LEAST as rigorous as what was used to determine he exists in the first place. Things like testimonials, and personal revelation should not even be on your radar for claims like the three O's of God. I mean...what am I missing here?!
I'm still waiting for your take on this, AAA. Any thoughts?
