Atheists don't realize asking for evidence of God is a strawman

Have fun.

Okay, so does "your side" have all the evidence as well? Actually it doesn't. A lot of evidence is still being found. A lack of evidence doesn't mean anything.

It's just a "gotcha"... Obviously if I said what I said in the OP it's not going to "turn" anyone because it's still just a "gotcha".. I already said in the first few pages that this is just a exercise to see some good counters..

Pardon me for being confused.  I'm not sure where the "gotcha" comes in?  We talk about a lack of scientific for god's existence all the time without ever mentioning the Bible, because the Bible isn't evidence, lol.  It seems you agree with us on this point?  

Did some atheist assert that you need scientific evidence in order to believe in god, or that the Bible must live up to scientific standards in order for you believe it's contents?  If not, then you are the one strawmanning us.
