Your analogy is completely off what I tried to convey. Nice attempt to dodge, but a god is an extraordinary thing, is it not?

extraordinary things and extraordinary claims are not the same and you would do well not to commit an equivocation fallacy. and regardless, calling something an extraordinary thing is still subjective. I would agree that God is an extraordinary thing, but not that it is an extraordinary claim.
and why don't you read the definition of extraordinary and tell me exactly why it is subjective.
http://www.thefreedictionary.com/extraordinary
I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with senses, reason, and intellect has intended us to forgo their use and by some other means to give us knowledge which we can attain by them.
