[big]BELIEVERS[/big]cannot be swayed by evidence based argument.
[big]FAITH [/big] is about belief even when faced with contrary evidence

Nevertheless, i prefer to actually engage with people before simply dismissing them. I enjoy it. I enjoy speaking to different people and seeing their take because (despite your pigeon-holing) many of them give fascinating answers which open up lively discussion.
But to each their own, right?🙂

@Dshhh Actually, I heard a rabbi say once that he had no idea if God existed, but he preferred that he did, so he lived his life accordingly. Even Mike Huckabee, a former pastor, when asked if Christianity was the only way to heaven, said it was the only way "as far as I know." Implying that there could be other ways he was personally unaware of.
"Judge not lest ye be judged" has been interpreted to judging another person for their belief or lack thereof. John Shore has interpreted Jesus' statement "I am the way, the truth, and the life; no one comes to the father but through me" to mean that Jesus decides who goes to heaven, but this does not necessarily have anything to do with Christianity. Jesus never said "you must be a Christian," but arrogant swine like @Speedyman conveniently ignore that.
The loudest Christians (and religious people in general) tend to be the most arrogant ones, but there are a lot of them who don't feel the need to reinforce their own faith by continually shoving it down everyone else's throat.

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
No evidence. You are still on hope.
there is no faith on solid ground. Check your definition of faith.
I’ve been there and done that. I have the t shirts.
Your belief is no better than a belief in Zeus or Ra or Vishnu.
You have been sold a lie because of geography.
I have said nothing you can correct me on.
