So if you hear about Hindu myth saying that Vishnu slept and Brahma appeared in a lotus sprouting from his navel. Once done sprouting, Brahma created the universe.
And someone asked you if you wanted to hear more about the evidence of Vishnu's existence you probably would not be interested because the story is very lame (from today's perspective) and you can see it was made up by and for primitive people. So why would it be any different for God of the Bible or Allah or any other God?

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
