You've still all to provide a single proof that belief can require evidence. I thought the transvestite site link was very well written and clear about it.
That God cannot require evidence is more than my personal opinion. Please fine me one successful argument against this. What you're quoting is superstition (sorry to be disrespectful to your Mum E), and that never ever passed as serious faith, ever. No, anyone serious about their faith knows very well that there can be no proof. The bible is the claimed guide of Christians and it shows conclusively that there can be no proof.
You can have your own idea of what religion is and require of that belief system proof. What I'm saying is that this is precisely not Christianity.
Yes Evie I'm contracting that statement in defense against Adrian's point. Now things have calmed down a bit and I'm allowed to speak a bit more freely. Adrian's statement is incorrect. The rational don't only use evidence. It remains a completely illogical word pairing. Evidence for belief vs belief without evidence. Unless you're with E and making up your own definition of religion. One in which you can amazingly have proof of God. (show me that proof BTW ))
