If anything, I think we should raise those standards even more rather than lowering them to assuage the fee-fees of the flock. When dealing with an actual god, as opposed to a pretend one, said god should have no difficulty meeting the most stringent criteria that mortals can devise.
Not looking good for the theists.
Funny how their standards for evidence change, to other stuff that contradicts their bible, they have higher standards than anyone on earth. Stuff born from real research work, nor cummunal
And if it is perceived of as "fringe" because a majority of humans on Earth don't accept it (even if part of the reason for that is that they don't know anything about it), then it is a "conspiracy theory" on par with other great conspiracies. Like Alien abductions, the moon landing, 9/11 truthers, or the conspiracy that the thing on Trump's head really is his hair. Phsssssh, as if.
