Wrong way around.

You're the one asserting that theists have evidence. If you want to establish this, start producing some.

If you are starting at the point that there is "no evidence" than I am too old and tired to argue with that level of ignorance. You can believe what you want. When you learn how to have a discussion, maybe I will participate.

You're redefining "discussion" as well as "evidence".  I'm happy to just snipe at your poor attempts to rationalize an emotional choice.

The reasons i see are to relieve angst and for people that live a good life and want their sacrifice to mean something. They aren't bad per-say, but thats no reason to force people to believe what theist believe.
