Just an offer to anyone, and I'm willing to go the distance with anyone in an earnest discussion.

Any type of bottom/up approach to knowledge (eg foundationalism starting from necessary assumptions, gathering evidence, data IOW scientific method) will yield nonsense to the question of God. It’s literally “impossible” to prove a metaphysic with data. It’s the very difference between science and philosophy. The only way for a conversion is through faith. Faith is the foundation of metaphysical belief. If you’re a skeptic, you’re sitting this one out.

You believe because you desire to. Or you disbelieve because you desire to. I believe in God because it’s the simplest metaphysical explanation to account for all reality. My desire is for discovery. Why are you a skeptic?
