A promise of evidence tomorrow demonstrates nothing today, and is incapable of mounting a serious objection to what evidence we do have today. What -can- be said, if you're hoping for evidence tomorrow, is that you do not have any today.
You're pleading the possibility of some meaningful ignorance with your interlocuter, and while potentially true..it's entirely uninformative. It will always be the case that there may be something that we don't know. Even if we had "complete knowledge" about some subject x, the one thing missing would be knowledge of complete knowledge. This is why a requirement of complete knowledge is unreasonable.
