What I believe is that you already have sufficient evidence, and you are in denial. Unless the core issues of why you don't believe are dealt with, which are almost always personal and emotional reasons, arguing with you about it isn't going to do any good. You stand on your foundation of unbelief and ask me to knock you off of it, but no one can do that. No one can argue you into faith. You have to voluntarily step away from that position of willful unbelief and only then will you be open to the truth.
So in other words you can't demonstrate the existence of god? Well I expected as much. That's why you want me to....just take your word for it. The answer is no.
Also no, I don't have sufficient evidence. You haven't provided any!
I don't believe in god for the same reason I don't believe in fairies. There is no reason or evidence to support their existence. I don't believe in god for the same reason I don't believe in the tooth fairy. Got nothing to do with emotion or anything personal. That's just you putting words in my mouth. So no, no denial. Just pure out lack of belief. Also yes, I have already ruled it out. Sensible thing to do when it's unsupported and improbable religious nonsense.
I never asked you to take my word for it. I've simply stated that I believe God has already provided to you sufficient evidence, but that you willfully suppress the truth. It's entirely up to you what you believe, the only question is whether you are interested in the truth. Let me ask you a question..If Jesus is God, would you follow Him?

We ask you to PROVE YOUR BELIEF ... we on the other hand do not have to believe that gravity or evolution works, and "speaks to us" all the time.
This thread is about evolution. If it was about proving the existence of God, that is what I would be trying to do. However, my position is the biblical position, that people deny Gods existence because they suppress the truth. I am happy to discuss God with anyone, but if anyone wants evidence I will direct them to Romans 1:18-20
Of all choices, atheism requires the greatest faith, as it demands that ones limited store of human knowledge is sufficient to exclude the possibility of God.
