There is "evidence" it's just not to your liking. Why do positivists think that nothing that they can't see exists?
He expects faith, that's what he wants. Everyone would believe in Allah SWT if he came down and showed himself to everyone, but they'd follow him out of fear and not because they want too. He wants you to be his willing servant, and to love every moment of it.
These are VERY basic apologics, friend; I'll leave you to the Snagas. We Uruks have tougher opposition to face up to. .

Don't let it bother you - in the end, the truth will out, and baseless claims - such as all the ones that have been popped by theist apologetics in a hell of a hurry up to now - will be exposed.

I can see your mind is made up. My guess is if God slaped you in the back of the head you would dismiss the experience searching for the board that fell out of a plane.
One example: God gave me a lucid dream about my job at 3 AM. The exact course of events came to pass at 11AM.
In a nutshell I had a position from hell and had been asking God for help. That dream was about being transferred to a position that was much better for me. Quite the dream. I remember it in full detail to this day.

That's an interesting experience. If someone were to prove to you that the dream wasn't from the God you believe in, would you quit believing in that God?

Nope. Good luck proving such a thing. There is scientific basis to explain that experience. Plus I've had too many other "experiences" that tie into God. And yes, I am aware of other spiritual entities.

So you wished for a transfer out of one position into another , better position, your hopes and concerns worked their way into your dreams, and when the transfer happened, that proved Gods existence?
There is no way you could have been transferred to another position within your company that was better than your "position from hell" without God causing it?

were you and god friends before the position from hell and the dream?
