I looked for a series of verifiable promises a specific deity made and then set out to see if what they say would happen indeed happen.
For instance A/S/K so I asked sought and knock and got what was promised.
Only problem, 1.5 billion Muslims claim they've received what is promised in their holy text also.

You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.
