So my argument is this:
* Only scientific works or works that claim that they can withstand scientific scrutiny can be subject to scientific scrutiny.
* Bible doesn't claim it's a scientific work nor does it claim that it can withstand scientific scrutiny.
* So if someone asks for scientific evidence for God it also carries a implicit claim that Bible has claimed it is a scientific work or that it can withstand scientific scrutiny. This implicit claim is what I called the straw.

Also you created a thread, but it is not yours. Any member can reply to it. You do not get to tell people to fuck off, specially if they replied to you within the forum rules.
You have done this several times in this thread.
Okay, I've been only respectful to people that were respectful to me. I only didn't reply respectfully when that person wasn't respectful to me first. Is it not allowed to respond to disrespectful comments with disrespect?
