Still waiting for evidence of a god.
Any god will do.
So far all I've gotten is some ramblings about a story book. That book and it's many authors are not evidence. That book is the claim.
Supernatural by definition is beyond our natural world.
There is nothing we can say about it or it's properties.
It is outside of existence and things outside of existence are non existent by fucking definition.
Stories and anecdotes about the supernatural are not evidence of the supernatural. They are evidence that human beings like fictional tales.
We love stories. The bigger and wilder, the better.
We love to Max out our heroes or those we worship.
"My god can beat up your god"
And that's what happened with all the different branches of Christianity in its infancy.
Yahweh, the god of war, was one of over 70 different gods with the god El reigning over all.
This god of war ended up winning the battle and replaced El as the top figure among all the gods.
Stories told by campfire began to be written down.
As with such stories, they change over time.

Did you know that there are several people in New York City named Peter Parker. I wonder which one is the real Spiderman.
The Spiderman books talk about these massive skyscrapers in the city of New York.
New York does exist and does have massive skyscrapers.
The books also mention modern day historical figures.
And the books authors are well known and alive.
Other people that live in New York also have told the tales of Spiderman.
Despite all of this, we still have no evidence that Spiderman exists.

I hope I made my point.
You can argue about the stories in the bible all day and it doesn't get you one step closer to providing evidence of a god.
