Scientific evidence, friend. Like maybe proof that there is some kind of 'Heaven' dimension or even something as simple has video of him magically helping someone with his wizard-powers. Proof that the universe was actually sparked by a creator. Proof of the Bible being historically accurate. Things along that line. The thing is, the more we dig, the worse it looks for gods.

Might I ask why you believe in Christianity to begin with?

EDIT: Any prediction that is made can be "fulfilled" in literature. I could write a book about how the Rapture occurred. In a thousand years, people could take this as fact. However, that does not make it so.

Glad you got a kick out of the user name.

Regarding scientific evidence, are there not things we know are true despite any science to prove them? For example, we know that the word love is spelled love for non-scientific reasons. English is a language, not a science. We know 1 + 1 = 2, because mathematics (not science) tells us so. We know Plato was a student of Socrates, and Aristotle was a student of Plato, and Alexander the Great was a student of Aristotle. Yet it is historical evidence, rather than scientific evidence that causes us to elieve. Not all truth is proven true by science; don't you agree?

Actually, the study of history is a science. How do you think we know what we know? Archaeology, linguistics, philology, etc. are all sciences.

As for your assertion about language, I happen to be a linguist, and I'm going to have to disagree with you. We know the word 'love' is spelled 'love' because we have science that tells us the evolution of the word. English may not be a science, but then again neither are atoms. The study thereof is where science comes into play.
