That isn't evidence. It is myth. Unless you have objective verifiable evidence of course
Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts

"God did it" is not an argument. It is an excuse for intellectual laziness.

Re: Choice
But unless you or he can provide the evidence a rational course would be to put that belief into the realm of myth. Then again religious belief is not based on rational thought.
​
not all beliefs are myths.
​
No kidding. But unless there is evidence they can be relegated to the realm of myth. Why is your JC dude any less a myth than Zoroaster? or maybe even Confucious?
​
It is rare for a belief to be evidenced.
Not at all. Most of the things I believe in are evidenced. There are very few unevidenced things I believe. Maybe that is part of your inner turmoil.
​
Evidence is not the only thing to base choices on.
​
Maybe not, but outcomes are much better when you base choices on evidence. Just sayin.
