Believing in Deities is a Form of Psychosis

For instance, if I could send five graduate students to pay surprise visits to five of the holiest non-physical science practitioners available, and the practitioners could provide the same correct answer to a question for which only I know the answer and which can't be physically ascertained by anyone else, that would be evidence that they have access to information in a way that physical science can't yet duplicate. Even two out of five would be significant enough to warrant further investigation.

Without evidence of that caliber, all you're providing are unsupported assertions.

That is positively possible provided that these practitioners (forget the holiest) follow the path to the very top of human existence.
That type of knowledge however is not only achieved by those who practice yoga meditation or intuitional science.

There you go, now you have a way to substantiate your assertions. Provide a list of people qualified to participate in the study and you're ready to make history!
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
