Yea ok. I am sure you believe it and? 
And others are "convinced" of the "evidence" of the Koran"
And others are "convinced" of the "evidence of the Torah/Talmud"
And others are "convinced" of the "evidence" of Buddha.
And others are "convinced" of the "evidence" of the Hindu Vedas,

You guys need to decide which it will be. On the one hand, you say because various world religions contradict each other that means they are all false. Then you turn around and say there isn't any reason to choose one over the other 'cause they're all the same. Which is it?

I wonder how someone, such as yourself, can so readily recognize nuance in the natural sciences and philosophy and yet be so oblivious to it in other areas such as hermeneutics and semiotics.
Fine, if you stupidly think that is a contradiction on our part, you and all the other religions of the world and god claimants figure out a neutral formula  and neutral lab, and when you all figure out who got it right, come back to us with your findings. You are welcome to try, but again, our species is far older than any written religion.
