I am beginning to think you are not speaking of merely Yahweh. The trouble is that you are unclear.
The only 'evidence' of Yahweh is the Bible.

You do not know anything, because there is nothing to know. Invented fantasies are not knowledge. If it was legitimate, you would be able to show it to me and I would be incapable of denying the truth of its existence.

You say eternal condemnation "may" not be in the Bible, but that just shows that you don't know...
I could be wrong about that, true.
But, what you believe is irrelevant. Reality is not subject to your fantasies. God does not exist just because you want to think he does.
Quote:Open your eyes, there is evidence everywhere, it's all in how you interpret it for yourself...
If I have to interpret it as evidence, it isn't evidence of any value. It is a delusion. I can interpret anything I want to be evidence of anything I want. I can come up with 'evidence' that Garfield is a real cat. It would be ridiculous stuff and people would scoff at me for asserting it, but it's all in how you interpret it for yourself...
There is no evidence of green elephants in my living room. I have searched this room thoroughly for evidence of green elephants and none has been forthcoming. I could not even get a green elephant in my living room because it would be impossible to fit one through the door. Nobody has ever seen a green elephant anywhere, much less in my living room. There is no reason for me to believe that a green elephant is in my living room. Therefore, it is reasonable to assert "there are no green elephants in my living room.
