I doubt they've been presented with evidence. See how this works?
You clearly prefer attacking the character of those who disagree with you, rather than considering why they regard your "evidence" as the crap that it is. Of course, the latter would entail you questioning your own beliefs, and I know that that can be a fearful thing. Many of us here have done exactly that and realized our beliefs need to be jettisoned.
You make a play of it, shilly-shallying over whether to be Catholic or Swedenborgian or whatever other little sect you regard as the truth du jour -- but you are unwilling and unable to question your central precept. Given that, your criticism and questioning the sincerity of others is not just tawdry, but hypocritical.
Show me your evidence, instead of poisoning the well.
