Looking to understand your point of view from a reasoned perspective. This is about Christ specifically, based on what we know if Him via the bible.
As I understand reason, there is no objective data that shows God does not exist. There are a slew of arguments that would attempt to persuade one in that direction, but no objective factual data.
What we are left with is our subjective interpretation (opinion) of the evidence.
If one lives as though God does not exist based on any of the various subjective interpretations of the evidences, is that not a de facto subjective belief that God does not exist?
What I would love to see laid to rest is the subjective belief that many hold that they know God does not exist. You can't know this. You can believe it, but you can't know it.
I can accept and to some extent respect this: "I believe God does not exist, and here is why..."
What I can't fathom is: "Based on science we know God does not exist."
