Observational science is something that can be tested and confirmed over and over again. It can be observed by the eye.
Okay, so something is only scientific if you can see it happening with your own eyes. You do realise that you're parroting Ken Ham's deliberate ignorance of the scientific method?
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

Yeah, and the stars we see at night are just holes poked into the sky to witness the glory of heaven and the sun and the moon are attached there for god's greater glory.

Don't be silly. The stars are tiny lamps fixed to the dome of the sky, for signs and seasons.

A Christian told me: if you were saved you cant lose your salvation. you're sealed with the Holy Ghost
I replied: Can I refuse? Because I find the entire concept of vicarious blood sacrifice atonement to be morally abhorrent, the concept of holding flawed creatures permanently accountable for social misbehaviors and thought crimes to be morally abhorrent, and the concept of calling something "free" when it comes with the strings of subjugation and obedience perhaps the most morally abhorrent of all... and that's without even going into the history of justifying genocide, slavery, rape, misogyny, religious intolerance, and suppression of free speech which has been attributed by your own scriptures to your deity. I want a refund. I would burn happily rather than serve the monster you profess to love.

1. Not a single person on earth can refute the resurrection of Jesus Christ. In fact, all evidence points to it. Minimal facts argument.
2. Matter does not produce non-matter, (information, will, and so on)
3. Science is looking at data and interpreting it based on ones beliefs.
4. The person who said a Christian believed in evolution, she isn't a Bible believing Christian. Most likely a catholic, and catholics are not Christians.

Yes, I have arrived at the young earth belief via reason, my background is in biology.
What the hell kind of biology are are you studying... evolution should clear that young earth belief up for you....

Interesting, which evidence? Scientific if you please.
Also, my favorite subject. Do you believe in the trinity? If so, Jesus was god. So, even if I were to give you the resurrection, what is go known for? Is it something special to not being able to die?
Only going by your own definitions and mental acrobatics here.
I'm not going into the other things you mentioned since we were over them ad nauseum with every new missionary cropping up here. It's not too much to ask to use the search function, is it?

Can and will you demonstrate a sign of your belief for us, like drinking Drano Liquid, or molten boron, or concentrated sulfuric acid, and showing us it doesn't hurt you ??
Thomas wanted to feel the nail holes, we want something of similar gravitas, so that we might ourselves know your truth.
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
