   There is no evidence regarding gods, that I why I don't bother to   
   believe in them. If you ever find any evidence, let me know. Until then,   
   I will ignore the competing claims of all religions.   
      
   Tell me why you don't think that various competing religions is evidence   
   against the claim that a god exists?
