I don't see how fr0d0 is supposed to find any evidence if the above is indeed what he believes. If a god wanted "unreasonable" faith in his existence by his subjects... and a person thus has faith in said being because of 'intuition' (if you will?):
Then why would you even ask them what evidence or reasons they have for believing in such a being?

Of course he hasn't... if he did that would defeat the purpose of "God" as likely fr0d0 believes in him. What purpose? Well if you had faith in "God", you might very well know
(Iow: the purpose would sound ridiculous and/or stupid to you and me, as it takes having faith in "God" to have any real meaning to begin with).The most likely reason fr0d0 believes in "God" is that there is no reason to believe in him
I'm not fr0d0 of course, but his response would probably be along those lines
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
