If theists understood "evidence"

[Jehanne]

Of course, reasons and arguments, but, as we have all recently witnessed, feelings come into play, also!

Well feelings are subjective.   Do you put much weight in feelings?  I see feelings as perhaps a need to look closer, or further investigate.   However, I don't expect others to have the same feelings that I do, or to accept them.   I think that you need a rational case to dismiss evidence.

I don't think that the Gospels or Paul constitute "evidence".  I've asked you about this before, as to why I should accept the Gospel of Matthew but not the Gospel of Peter?
