"The surest way to prove the Ark's existence is to see for oneself; no need for swearing."

The claims have already been shown to be hoaxes, as the evidence I provided shows. Also, have YOU been there personally? Why do you expect a level of evidence from me that you don't feel you need for yourself?

Well, I have been to the Holy Land and seen, for example, the ruins of Ephesus and the archaeological proof of the Bible's authenticity in Israel, etc. The Biblical archaeological evidence is astounding.

As to the Ark, I'm just using a legal prerogative that eyewitness accounts trump circumstantial evidence most times.

No need to get huffy. You have "evolved" past that, I'm sure?
