"We have spokespersons, at least we have the historical record of spokespersons, who claim to have had direct contact with God or with vicegerents, angels, or some form of representative of God. Although it is true many who have made such claims have been exposed as charlatans, many have also been known for having high credibility and clean character. It is the latter who have been most commonly held as the witness record." WHO? And what was their evidence for contact? And how was the "evidence" verified? It is an EXTRAORDINARY CLAIM. If it is evidential in any credible way why is it not mainstream science?? "In addition we have written records of codified morality attributed to God." We have written records of "codified morality" attributed to THOUSANDS of Gods and to THOUSANDS of non-gods such as Confucius or Diogenes. Your point?? "Evidence of a universal regard for the concept of ultimate being exists as testified by all of humanity in one form or another." Neither superstitious belief not philosophical speculation is evidence. Indeed, the fact that these superstitions and philosophical speculations run and hop all about the warren is sufficient proof that they do not meet experimental requirements. "Evidence in the form of predictive scripture (warnings and promises) which seems to work out fairly accurately in the affairs of human beings" Don't embarrass yourself any further, please... "Testimonials from the believing congregations of the world seem to be unending." YES! CONTRADICTORY testimonials and mass graves for believers using the wrong "evidence"!! Imagining a god and starting a church or sect or following...yes...wonderful "evidence" of thousands of gods. Hmmm....
