After evaluating thousands of years of god claims we've concluded with high certainty that the source of those claims is the irrationality of human beings, not the existence of supernatural beings. But it would take just one bit of evidence to the contrary to open the door for re-inquiry. Just one. Why can't we find that one bit of evidence? Hmmmm.
"We've concluded".... and who is the "we" you're talking about? And why should I accept their authority? It sounds to me like you're asking me to accept an authority on this point - and after reading you're comments, I'm just so reluctant to do that.
Lots (and lots) of people I know have evaluated religious claims and concluded with "high certainty" that there is truth in the claims.
So if there are people that think the claims are good, why have other people decided they're wrong? Do they have any evidence? And if they don't have evidence that religious claims as wrong, why have they unscientifically shut the door on religious claims?
