No, if someone wants to convince me that their belief is objectively rational, not just "rational to them", then they should be able to demonstrate sound and reasoned arguments, backed up with evidence where appropriate.
If you have such an argument, as you seem to be claiming, I'd love to hear it. I've not heard anything that comes close. All I have heard is the three pillars of apologetics: deceit, logical fallacies and emotional manipulation. If you have an argument that doesn't use these, bring it on. I'll happily shut up about it if you can produce one.
Or if you want to argue that any of the three pillars are acceptable, please make that case.
I don't even know what your definition of "God" is, so that's the first thing to define. Then also, define what "exists" means.
