So you argument is basicallyThe NT is not evidence, information or fact it is thus not accepted
1. The NT, the early church, the personal experiences of billions of people is not information or facts because I failed to believe they are information or facts.
The experience of people is not evidence,information or fact no matter how many it is . Thus it not accepted
The early churches spotty history is the same . Thus it not accepted
All of this fails as a case for theism thus it is not accepted. So once again Atheism is based on your failure to make a case not any assertion the Atheist is making .

You are way off. Falsificationism is a philosophy of science principle applied to see if a proposition was scientific or NOT. Popper never meant that it applied to all areas of knowledge. There are huge stretches of human knowledge that are not falsifiable.
