Well, I've seen people pile evidence in front of your face, and I've seen you tell them that you don't understand it and that it doesn't count as evidence.
So you trust people you don't know only when they say something you want to hear? Seriously?
That's fine. If that is your conclusion, it is your conclusion. But again, your conclusions have a great deal more to do with you than they have to do with me. You're conclusions about me are not likely to be accurate representations of me. But you are free to think they are.
In my honest opinion, so do you.
I have no idea why. Especially since I didn't flat out state as much, like you did.
What conclusion would you come to? What other one is there?
Lack of thinking.
Well, I'm sorry to have to point this out, but you just can't find anyone as honest as me.
Evidence is only evidence if it is perceived as evidence. There is no other conclusion.

A most convenient way to protect your faith.
I know, it's hard to believe. It's just something you don't see every day. Well, that is, unless you get a chance to talk with me every day.
I am brave enough to seriously claim that my faith needs no protective safe guarding. God exists, and I am certain about that. The faith I have in God is nothing like the kind of faith that you imagine. My faith in God is more like complete trust in God. I don't believe that God exists. I know He exists. There is no doubt. There is nothing so fragile with regard to my faith that would require safe guarding.
Well then isn't it awfully convenient for you that you don't seem to recognize any empirical evidence as actual evidence.
I don't see it here either.
Oh, is that why you have to deny evidence that's waved in front of your face??
You telling me that someone's claim of evidence is somehow empirical evidence is rather meaningless to me. Convince me somehow that the claim is actually evidence, and I will determine for myself whether or not your particular claim of evidence is empirical or not.
If I thought evidence was waved in front of my face, I would admit that evidence was waved in front of my face. But the fact is, no evidence has been shown, and so therefore it is easy to conclude that no evidence has been waved.
