Evidence for a god. Do you have any ?

Which tells me that you don't actually have any legitimate evidence for the existence of God and you're just messing with us. I'm not wasting my time with you. Case closed.

Nope.  It tells me you don't have any evidence on the contrary.  Don't waste your time with me.  I didn't invite you.  You invited yourself.  Case closed.

I said I would consider the request if it was objective, and I will if it sounds reasonable, but I'm not sure what a "supernatural stick" is even.

At least you are heading in the right direction with it though.   If I come across a "supernatural stick", I'll make sure to let you know so you can consider it.

Please define the supernatural. 
At the moment it seems to me like it is the excuse to why you don't have evidence, and that's all.

You're working off assumptions.  Not interested.

I don't have to give evidence, but I offered to consider it based on what would be considered objective evidence.  Do we really have to go through this again?

Come on down to the mountains of East Tennessee. Hike up there early in the morning stand on the edge of the cliff and listen to the birds chirping, watch the foxes darting through the grass and watch the sun rise, poking his bright little head out from behind the clouds.

You look at that and tell me the lord God doesn't exist. Go on and do it!

I love being in the mountains and find them beautiful and awe-inspiring but not being able to explain how something came to be is not license to claim that it had to be a god. That is an argument from incredulity and ignorance and it is truly sad to see people settle for that. When I look at nature it inspires me to try to learn more about geology and evolution and all that the sciences can tell me about what is demonstrably true about how things formed. That understanding gives me a much deeper appreciation for what I'm seeing because I can begin to understand it a little. Deep time is much more impressive than superstition.

This is evidence for plate tectonics.

Come down to our local hospital. Visit the children's cancer care ward, look at the parents anguish, turn on the news see all the starving children.

Do it, and tell me that God exists.

Missionaries and church groups helping the sick and needy.  What are the atheists doing?  Mostly complaining, whining, and protesting.  The sad part is that you think you have to use the sick and needy to push your agenda, yet many of those patients believe in God.

Yes, there are many beautiful places in the world. Some are quite overwhelmingly beautiful.

How does that prove the existence of a deity?

Please provide me with a supernatural stick to show evidence of the supernatural.

What is a supernatural stick? How would a supernatural stick prove God?

I'm really not sure what you are talking about here. Maybe define what you mean more clearly.

What is a god ?

OMG did someone actually do the “look at the trees” shtick? Ha!

Look, first you need to provide a coherent definition for your god. You need to define properties that would be verifiable and falsifiable. You would then need to point to things in the real world that are exclusively indicative of this thing. So far religion has done this. None.
