you're not "demanding", you "just want". I guess a difference of degrees.

I'm not sure where this "attack" is on non-believers. If stating what seems to be obvious (that you dislike religion) is an attack, I guess I need a new definition. I've no beef with non-believers. I'm married to one.

I do have a beef with the belittling tone taken in any conversation about faith. If saying you seem to be bothered by religion rises to "attack", you might want to look back at your own responses.

I don't think you're really looking for insight. I could be wrong, but I've yet to read anything that leads me to think that's what's going on. I think you've quite decided what you think, and any contrary thought is unacceptable - or there for your entertainment.

We're approaching a non-tangible thing and you seem to be looking for tangible evidence. It's not available. God isn't apprehendable via scientific, empirical proof. So the very things you'd require are just not going to be found. That isn't deflection; that's just the way it is. There are some things you simply cannot measure. As I've said, that's where faith comes in.
