@Klorophyll To side-step the pseudo-logical arguments for a moment, consider a recent analogy. Stay with me, this is not about Trump but religion. Trump lost the 2020 election by millions of votes and it was a solid electoral win as well. However, Trump and his sycophants continue to claim that there was wide spread election fraud, voter fraud, corruption, collusion, you name it, and he actually got more votes than Biden. His followers are adamant that he won and his claims of fraud are true despite there being zero evidence. Not even a hint of evidence despite vast amounts of data. Yet they are certain that Biden and company did something unfair to steal the election. Why should I believe them?
Should I believe them because Trump is popular? Because I like his policies? Because I'm white and he's white? Because lots of people turned out to vote? Because Trump was surprised? On what basis other than pure faith, meaning belief in something despite no evidence and actual evidence to the contrary, should I believe him?
Now apply that to religion and you get the exact same result.
