"I'd rate those kind of thing more as expressions of difference than "attacks".

I honestly don't care. If you really think that calling a non-bigot a bigot, calling someone who doesn't agree with you an ant in a swarm (not that ants in a disturbed nest swarm anyway. Poor Joe. Pity he prefers God to reality!), and calling me "born again" are just "expressions of difference", well maybe we don't speak the same brand of English. I'd call those attacks myself, but hey ho. We can easily see whose side you're on. Fine.

"...but you clearly do, because you don't accept it as an answer to your demand for the kind of evidence you ask for, or you wouldn't keep making the same demand."

Well as far as I'm concerned I'm not going to debate "kinds of evidence" with you. I have only one kind, for which the bar is set high. You invent your own if you like. You have plenty of of allies. Matthew, Mark, Luke and John would be a start (even though they were about as close to Jesus as I am to Queen Victoria). Then you have all that tradition and ceremony and whatever a celibate old man in the Vatican tells you, and St Bernadette to boot. Good luck!
