They appeal to the supernatural and there is no evidence that supernatural is a thing.

The end.

Along with other things, the NT contains all kind of evidence. So, there seems to be evidence. You may not know enough about it to find it compelling evidence, but you can't make the claim there is none.

No it doesn't, the new testament contains claims unsupported by evidence.

By your standard any claim ever made anywhere by anyone must be seen as evidence. So all those people who say the world is flat is evidence that the world is flat or people who believe in trolls or fairies or angels because they believe it is evidence for those things.

It is the claim and not evidence.
