Hey, I'm new

I respond to ad-hominem from yourself, but you could see it. I've never seen you demonstrate your own supposed justified position, and indeed, I fail to see evidence of any atheist ever doing so successfully. ie having a coherant and logical epistemology. I therefore conclude that atheism is an intellectually indefensible position.

You try to force people to fit your own requirements, that you then kudos, like you're feeding sea lions. I've rarely seen such self serving ego massaging.

An epistemology is the single most valuable foundational belief not only because it is key to consistency and eliminating biases, but because it is so plainly open to questioning and refutation.
Indeed

Fr0d0's illusion that he is intellectually honest is contingent upon his maintaining that what he considers to be a justified belief (his belief in God) is in fact such. For him to fail to present a valid epistemology would absolutely defeat that proposition - His actions are telling that he does not have one and that is why he is so reluctant to even attempt to present it.
I attempt to answer any question presented. None of those attempts, surprise surprise, would satisfy your own position of strict denial. You refuse to investigate what is suggested to you, but follow your own pursuits and then are surprised not to end up at your chosen destination.
