Why on earth would I want to do that on an internet forum with some semi-literate who can't spell 'competent'?. I did that in real life,more than once, with real theologians. Last time was with a good friend who happened to be a Passionist priest. He handed me my head. That doesn't make him right (necessarily) only clever and more mentally agile than me.
Presuppositional theological sophistry is no substitute for evidence.
I gather you did nor bother to read or did not grasp what what I wrote earlier. I reiterate, but with less delicacy:
(1) I do not argue with apologists. I consider them intellectually dishonest,arguing from a position of personal certitude . I am a skeptic, I do not claim to 'know' anything,I merely opine .Hence ,agnostic+atheist. I make no claims, and therefore have no burden of proof. You are the one making the claims,which begin with "I believe----" The burden of proof is yours,100%.
(2) I reject the notion that truth may be discovered by reason alone:I demand (credible) evidence.
(3) Show me your evidence or fuck off.
