Why don't Theist's admit that there's no evidence for God?

I'm curious as to how you know what I'm thinking. Do you have any evidence though?

I'm open to anything you want to present.

Know what you are looking for, then you can find it. I can give you anything as evidence, but if you don't know what it is evidence for, you'll look at it with no idea.
What would qualify as God? Answer that first. Then you can recognise what evidence serves your search.

I'm not looking for God, I already believe in him. I'm just asking if anyone can provide evidence for him. As far as evidence you can provide me with anything you like preferably something in the scientific realm though.

What existed before our universe, according to science?

Science doesn't answer that question, and neither does religion. There's no way to know for sure.

Do a search. They're theorizing as we speak.

How can you theorize something that can't be tested?

Very interesting if you don't want to get too technical. If you do, try The Universe Before the Big Bang: Cosmology and String Theory or any number of similar works which will not give you the simplistic but inaccurate answer that certain sources will.
Making deliberate calculations, choices, and reactions based on information.

Everything does this.
Demonstrate to me a rock making deliberate calculations.

How do you think a rock is a rock? And not dust, or something other than a rock? It's very deliberately a rock, isn't it? Why? Science can give you a detailed answer.. But, rocks have certain properties that hold them together, as rocks, and those same properties interact with other things, according to the very deliberate calculations between them.
How much force will it take to crush the rock? The rock knows, because it will submit to that force and be crushed.

So funny story. I go up to my friend he looks to me and smiles. I ask, "what are you smiling about?' He replies with excitement, " have a new car." I look at him and say "that's great man. You want to show it to me?" He says "yeah of course." So he walks me out into a parking garage."Where is your car?" "Oh it's right there" pointing towards an empty parking space. "I don't see it are you sure you didn't park it somewhere else?" "No it's right there." "Well I don't see" I respond. "How do you know it is?" "Oh you see I believe it is there." "Ah, I respond so why do you believe it is there." "Salesman told me it was when he sold it to me." "Tell you what let's take mine" I tell him. Walking across the garage. I point to a spot with a car in it. "Do you see it?" "Yeah I do but Its not my kind of car so I'll drive in mine."
Your friend sounds pretty gullible.
