Evidence for a god. Do you have any ?

Evidence for a god. Do you have any ?
I believe I exist.

My evidence for my own existence is as follows.
I can see myself. I can feel myself.
My body has mass. I can weigh it.
I can displace water in a tub.
I reflect light. Other people can see me, can feel me.
There is a long list that I won't get into.

I believe my phone exists.
I can offer similar evidence for why I believe it exists.

I don't provide arguments to help prove that my phone exists. I provide my phone to prove it exists.

Does anyone have any tangible proof that a god exists ?

At the most basic level, our sun is a source of heat & light that appears each day in our lives. It is circular in appearance and at times can be blocked by the moon.

This is how people might have described the attributes of the sun many thousands of years ago.
They had no idea what it was made of or what happened within it on an atomic level or how much gravity it asserted on our planet.

They only knew a couple basic attributes, but those attributes allowed us to detect it's existence, even if we only knew .001% about it.

When it comes to a god, we know nothing.

A god could present itself in a godly human looking form for all to see. It could give off light that we could see. I could manafest in reality so that we would know it existed.

Well it could, if it really existed.
I don't believe it does.

In one of my hands I have an extremely small universe that contains a god.
In the other hand I have an extremely small universe that doesn't contain a god.

Can you determine which is which ?

To conclude.

By evidence do you just mean something that makes it a possibility or a form of proof?

Are there even any theists here who would rise to the challenge? Huh

If something exists, then it has the ability to, directly or indirectly, interact with reality.

By evidence, I mean show me proof that this thing someone calls a god directly or indirectly interacts with reality.

Neutrinos barely interact with matter, but we have discovered them interacting with it.

Plus, if I'm going to interact in this forum from here on out, I might as well get my feet wet.

All evidence for gods boils down to 'There is no evidence that gods don't exist'.  Please take this up with theists directly - I've argued the fallacy til I'm blue in the mouth, not going to do it any more.

I just dropped my pants. What more evidence do I need?

Now I've got the real convincing to accomplish. I might only be a minion.

Yes.

While I can believe everything else in the universe could have resulted purely from natural undirected processes following contingent operating principles of nature, the stupidity of theists is so extraordinary that only purposed malevolence mixed with supernatural insecurity and sadism could be responsible for its creation.

A few who think they already have and already proven god's existence.

If you ask any " believer" who claims to have as " personal relationship " with " god" to do an impersonation of what " god" sounds like, and they comply ----

It will never sound like some foreigner --- but will sound just like the believer - even the accent will be identical.

Guess why?
