Well if you say you are a Christian the core belief is that Jesus was the son of the one true god. Now strip him of all his magic powers, (kinda like Jefferson did) then he is just a man. Still would be no evidence of that God itself.
If you admit you have no evidence then you seriously need to consider that there is nothing there in what you chose to believe other than you merely find it comforting. Harry Potter and Star Wars have pleasant motifs in them too, but everyone accepts them as the fiction we know they are.
Oh I agree that I've presented no evidence of God! I was at great pains to emphasise that. However I'm not sure that me saying "I'm a christian" constitutes a claim that the beliefs of Christianity are all true. That's something I've been at great pains to NOT say.
