Look at it from a perspective, Randy.

There is a being, who is all-powerful,  all-knowing and all-present. It created humans and cares deeply about what they believe about it, so much that it decides what to do with them after death depending on that. It has been interfering with human lives for centuries. It even went down to earth itself, as a human.

And you're struggling to provide something that isn't even evidence for it.

How can you believe in the face of such a disproportionately underwhelming, if not entirely absent evidence for something that should be the easiest thing to prove?

This has been explained MULTIPLE times.

<once more with feeling>

God is not struggling to reveal himself to you nor am I struggling to show you what evidence we do have. You're struggling to accept it. That's all.

If God were to make a more overt gesture of His existence, He would interfere with our free will.

It's just that simple.

Uh huh.

Like he had no problem doing before the invention of cameras. Straight up smiting people, too.

Just another weak excuse. The fact that you need to make it makes your god even less plausible.
