""None either way" standing alone is a misrepresentation because it seems to give equal intellectual weight to both the ways."

In this case the ONUS is on the believer to produce evidence to support his/her case. To claim, as a certain believer here often does, that God is unknowable/inexplicable etc. merely serves to undermine his case.


Not rejoining, just clarifying my statement for you.

I said there is no "evidence" for or against God.
That is a fact not an opinion, and certainly not a "misrepresentation."

There is no "onus" on anyone to produce it, because there is none.
Is that hard for you to deal with?

You can believe if you want to, or not, but there is no point demanding "evidence" or bemoaning its absence, or blaming anyone for the absence.

There is no evidence for or against.
Sorry.
