I see a lot of theists who respond with "I have the right to believe whatever I want" or some such similar line.
yes, you do. Nobody said you didn't.
Are we supposed to stop asking questions then?

We don't but we have found that you won't accept any answers. That's because theist answers are never supported by any actual evidence.
I'm seriously asking, if there is no evidence, is there some reason to take theist's answers seriously.

We just hate being asked insincere questions. Oh I assure you I am very sincere. I legitimately have no idea why any of you think a god exists.
Can you tell me what convinces you most?

What evidence would you like? Be specific... Anything that demonstrates a god is either necessary or at least that some aspect like intelligence can exist before the universe or in any way that would resemble the definition of a god.
I can't be much more specific than that, or else I would know what the evidence was already.

I warn you that nothing will be considered acceptable. The authors of any linked article will be called "hucksters".

I will happily answer any questions regarding my faith if they are asked to me. You can disagree all you want, because we are all entitled to our opinions.

What is it that you would like to know? How about if you believe in a god, how much have you considered that there actually isn't one? Would it change anything for you? And what would it take for you to accept that there isn't one?

Yes, I've considered it very much. Would it change anything for me? Yes, I suppose so. What would it take to convince me that there isn't one? Easy. God would have to appear to me in person and tell me to my face that He doesn't exist.

I'm curious. or in any way that would resemble the definition of a god... Give me an example. Just to be clear, you want evidence that God exists but you can't be specific about such evidence because if you were, God would exist or something.... If you had any evidence, you wouldn't need to ask. Also, why would I know the answers to those? As far as I can tell it's a myth.

Step two is realizing you can do that yourself.

How about I start, by simply asking, what convinced you that a god is something real.

God would have to appear to me in person and tell me to my face that He doesn't exist. Wouldn't that be paradoxical? My thoughts as well. That doesn't make much sense. Seems like that statement should be the other way around, as it is with me. I would need to see God face to face (or at least him somehow show me he is real) in order for me to believe in his existence. I've never witnessed his presence, therefore I am an atheist. Kind of like how I also don't believe in Santa, the Tooth Fairy, or Leprechauns because I've never seen them and there's no proof they exist. They're just myths.

There is no problem. You just need to get a life and quit troubling over what people believe or don't believe.
