[Serious] Christians what would change your mind?

[John 6IX Breezy]

Evidence can't change Christian's mind because they are not open minded.

Well, my impression is that, based on the many posts in this forum and considering the likes of Richard Dawkins and Lawrence Krauss, it appears that a good number of us atheists are just as guilty of not being open minded enough. I suspect Christians that are not of the fundamentalist type are more open minded than many of us here.

There's also general ambiguity of what to do in the face of falsifying evidence. For example, theories can either be discarded or modified to account for contradicting data. So it's up to people whether they wish to modify or discard their beliefs when something doesn't fit. Discarding one's beliefs isn't the only appropriate response, but it's often the only response people expect.

And although data is objective, evidence itself is subjective. Evidence by it's very nature requires interpretation. In other words, evidence is theory-dependant. Data only becomes evidence when you look at it through a particular lens. And that lens can always be reinterpreted and exchanged.

So I agree that people can sometimes be closed minded. But even when a person is open minded it does not mean they'll reach the same conclusions we expect from them. Not changing one's mind about something, does not mean a person is closed minded. They could have understood the information, processed it, and concluded that it did not warrant a change of mind.
