Truthfully, do dismiss 'evidence' because it does not fit your narrative or your elitism's definition on what evidence should be is the ultimate absurdity, as witnessed by those who thought they knew the world was flat!
Remember sport the TOP scientific minds of that day made a mockery of those who did not think as the population did concerning the world's shape.
This is the KEY: The question why??? Why were people mocked and disparaged for not believing as the rest did? the answer is pride. The Pride in the idea that their world view was complete and they themselves knew the world to be flat so NO EVIDENCE WAS EVER GOOD ENOUGH.
Sound familiar?
You are not even willing to question your foundational principles Why not? are they so fragile? Or is it against the intellectual's rule book? Must intelectual questions and change only come from the top? are you not able to question or think for yourself?
Science, not being in the business of attempting to prove or disprove the existence of God, is still more credible than religious claims because at least scientists can admit when they are wrong and move forward. If there was ever any "evidence" of god's existence, the question then would not be one of belief but rather of how worthy the god was of being acknowledged or worshipped.
