That's the key component
What counts as evidence?
Outside of the *physical* universe.
Define your terms.
The physical sciences only study physical things, of course.

If i am going to believe something I will need supporting evidence. I need information and data that support the statement. Data and information that fit into the current framework of our knowledge.
Well as an example if you didn't believe that crows exist, I could show you a picture of a crow, or crow feathers, test some crow blood, point to a space in the ecosystem where a crow-like entity probably exists, perhaps even bring in a crow

Pssh.
Everyone knows birds aren't real.
You both have faith that your understanding is correct.
Unfortunately if your claim is of an invisible, incomprehensible immeasurable being, you're sol
@Beemann Kind of like Jesus?
Jesus would have to be unique and distinct in some way. He was one of many claimed prophets throughout history
@Salacious Swanky Cat Do you believe in the existence of God with 100% certainty?
He was unique, hes the biggest meme
Lol
@Bayesed yes.
I don't even believe I am here, with 100% certainty.

For the most part

@Bayesed why would my level of belief matter. It proves nothing.

could be.
How can you believe it with 100% certainty? What else do you believe with 100% certainty? To believe in something so absolutely proves your belief is unjustified. Especially when so many people give it near 0% validity.
If by that you mean we are all just processes running in a computer program.
@Bayesed just like your atheism. Lol
Apparently, 40 percent of France doesn't believe in the effectiveness of vaccines.
Belief without evidence is faith fyi
So I wouldn't go appealing to the mob so quickly.
I would assign a probability to there being a god. I would not say there absolutely is 0% chance of a god. I just assign it a very low probability. Because I have seen near 0 evidence to back the claim.
So if I can test a thing and observe that it's true, that's not faith
Faith is a critical part of how most people function in reality.
