I ask for evidence of that god's existence and all I ever seem to get is a lot of pie-in-the-sky horseshit from people who are desperate to believe that they have some sort of invisible friend looking out for them.I haven't made any assertions or claims about God's existence. I'm not here to convince you (or anyone else for that matter) that God meets your own particular personal criteria for whether you should believe that He exists. Frankly, I don't care whether you believe that God exists or not. However, you are claiming (by implication) that evidence is necessary to be rational in believing that God exists, and if you want to hold my beliefs to your subjective standards you'd better shoulder your end of the "burden of proof" bargain and tell me why I should take your standards seriously whatsoever. I'm rather tired of people playing the "atheism is just a lack of belief" card as if that is sufficient to avoid having to make any arguments in support of their epistemological views.
'God' is your claim. The burden of proof is yours to show that he is not a figment of your imagination.
I'll see what you come up with but I don't have much hope that it will be any different from what I've seen before.
