Is Accepting Christian Evidence Special Pleading?

Huggy, in the final analysis all you have there is an unexplained bit of light contaminating some film.  The light could have been a reflection off the camera lens by some transient illumination, or some other natural source.  Calling it the Holy Spook is a massive, utterly unsupported jump to a patently ridiculous conclusion.

I cannot and will not say for certain that your god is fictional; however, I am strongly of the opinion that it almost certainly is fictional and simply not worth serious consideration.  I am utterly appalled by the trivial and ambiguous things that you present as evidence.

I'm still shaking my head at how weird and counter-intuitive that effect is -- and wondering how one could go about exploiting and enhancing that brain glitch for overall better health.
