I think it's silly to state that there is no evidence for a thing crammed full of evidence. It's a mistake to confuse 'scientific' evidence with evidence of all other sorts.
Quote:I believe that is irrational. No doubt we all have to have some faith in certain things in our life. For example, I must have faith that my parents are actually my biological parents. I don't know this. I just assume because all the evidence points towards it.
Note: an equivocal amount of evidence points to the Bible being true. Faith's an amazing thing, isn't it?

Quote:On the other hand, there no evidence for a God(s), which Theists believe in.
How could there be evidence produced by scientific method of a *metaphysical being*?

Quote:They are irrational, from my point of view, because they think, with absolute certainty(many of them anyways), that there is a God. With no real evidence.
NTS applied to evidence! OMG, I've never seen that before

Quote:My extrasensory perception is a little skewed, that is very true. I don't believe you can "return" them though.
Actually, I am overqualified for retuning of one's ESP.
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
