No, when evidence is offered you find dishonest pretext to dismiss it

You didn't provide any evidence.

and when a person shares his observations and experience,

Which does not qualify as "evidence" as there is no means by which anyone else can evaluate it...

you fabricate imaginary observations of your own as a pretext to dismiss them.

How do you know that I fabricated anything? Why are your "observations and experience" valid evidence and mine "fabrications"?

"You didn't provide any evidence."

(Singing to the tune of "Oh, Dem Golden Slippers) Oh, dat river in Egypt, oh, dat river in Egypt...

"Which does not qualify as "evidence" as there is no means by which anyone else can evaluate it..."

Sure there is. But that requires good faith and objectivity, so, I would agree that there is no means by which **you** can evaluate it.

"How do you know that I fabricated anything?"

Through the application of good faith and objectivity. It is more credible to claim that one has met space aliens than to claim that one has never seen an atheist advance the argument that evolution disproves the existence of God.

Especially when one is claiming never to have seen even a single instance.

I guess you might be living your life in a cave with some software filter that bars all such references from your screen, but short of that, a reasonable person has to regard your claim as a fabrication.
