Agreed. And zero evidence has been presented. Hint: Just because you claim something as evidence doesn't automatically make it so.
The position that there is no evidence for God is nonsense and those that make it are confusing the definition of evidence and proof.
Evidence refers to pieces of information or facts that help us establish the truth of something. Proof is a conclusion about the truth of something after analyzing the evidence. Evidence is suggestive of a conclusion. Proof ranges from probabilistic to conclusive.
Are you saying there are no "pieces of information or facts" that are available to analyze on the proposition: God exists?
