A pharao that is never named and an Exodus story that even most jewish historians consider to be fiction. Uhm, I can't for the life of me say why I'm sceptical about stories like that.

But let's say it was as it is told. He could pull these tricks again, couldn't he? And may I just note that you don't give him much credit by saying that he wouldn't be able to convince us. I'm sure an omnipotent, omniscient being could thing of something.

But good job evading my actual question when you quoted me: Got any quotes where one of us called atheism a science?

I've never said that atheism is a science, nor have I asserted that any of you do.

I said that atheism is more of a faith or world view and that it is not scientific.
