Seriously? Pascals' Wager? That's the best you have?
What if the real god is Allah and he's pissed that you don't live your life according to the Koran?

This deity answered your prayers? How? Did you pray for something and what you prayed for happened at some point? Because this is hardly convincing evidence of cause and effect. Unless you can show me where you prayed for an amputee to have a leg restored and the leg grew back. But I'm guessing you don't have any stories like that.
Quote: his providing for me
This deity "provided for (you)"? How? Did he show up at your door with an armload of groceries? Did he give you a new car? Did he build you a house?
Quote:and him teaching me personally,
He "taught (you) personally"? He came to your house and spoke to you? He sat down with you and explained something you didn't understand?
Quote:whether you believe me is not important
I believe you THINK this deity has acted on your behalf. I don't for a second believe that you have actually been in contact with a deity.
Quote: what is important is for Christians to treat real requests for evidence with respect and do whatever is in their power to provide sources that will establish grounds for the claims of the Bible and Jesus Christ.
And if you would examine your "sources" you would discover that they are woefully lacking as convincing evidence. An ancient book of unknown authorship hardly cuts it.
Science flies us to the moon and stars. Religion flies us into buildings.
God allowed 200,000 people to die in an earthquake. So what makes you think he cares about YOUR problems?
