As far as I'm aware, there's no evidence, hence no interaction.
You haven't supported your claim. If you're going to claim that God has stopped interacting, you have to support it. The burden isn't on me to disprove you; the burden is on you to prove your truth-claims.

...uh, what? I wasn't nitpicking whichever century you mentioned...

Do you?
If you do, then you may provide some way to actually measure that interaction.... or is it just the usual babel: feelings this and that, wishful thinking, etc, etc, etc?... all capable of being described by psychological constructs within the human brain.
Again, as far as I'm aware, there's no god-people interaction. But there are people who are convinced they actually had such interaction... this is probably what you called "anecdotal evidence".
Please, provide any non-anecdotal evidence of god-human interaction. I'll wait.
Do you retract your claim, then, since you're refusing to support it?
Quote:But beware that the only one that would probably convince me would be the one where this god actually behaves like in the myth: direct, visible, audible interaction and displays of super-natural power (Instantaneous transport across galaxies would make a first good impression, but wouldn't rule out "aliens").
It is not incumbent on me to disprove a claim that you have offered without evidence.
