If the assertion was merely "the bible says ----

If I assert "because Fred told me ", that is called "hearsay evidence", but not proof.


Testimonials are often used in advertising ."I used X and Y happened" THAT is called ''anecdotal evidence". It is neither credible nor proof,but it IS evidence.

I call myself an agnostic atheist,asserting only: "I do not believe in god(s) due to the lack of CREDIBLE evidence. I make the distinction because there IS evidence for the existence of gods,shiploads. Eg oral tradition,personal testimony,ancient and modern writings concerning hundreds of religions..BUT None of it holds up to scrutiny;the evidence is not credible and does constitute proof.

EVIDENCE DOES NOT MEAN PROOF. At best,it implies (suggests) proof. Evidence must be examined to see if it supports the claims made. Religious evidence does not.
