Many atheists have answered that God knows what evidence would satisfy them as to his existence/purpose. And then Christians howl back that that answer is trite (probably because they can't rebut it.)
But at every stage, the proclaimed qualities of this so-called ineffable being are countermanded by the bible itself, and its adherents.
Just one example: James 4:8a - Draw close to God, and he will draw close to you. Well done, Dad. I'm your child but I'll make the first move. And if I don't you'll abandon me? Way to go, old man.
One drop of poison and no-one touches the well of sweet water. This God entity is poison. Jealousy, rage, murderous, a prima-donna selfie-addict narcissist, genocidal maniac. But he loves you! (George Carlin.)
And this thing wants your love and devotion on ITS terms?
Screw that.
