And it sounds like you're assuming that it doesn't. Is there a difference?

Is it arrogant to expect that the god claim stand or fall on its merits? And if it does fall, is it arrogant to take the position, that until further evidence or reasoning can be provided, the claim can be dismissed, just as the claim regarding the existence of an orbiting tea kettle or the dragon in your garage?

Look if you really believe in your flying tea kettle or garage dragon then that's your business. The "God claim" as you call it has not fallen and several billion people on the planet and the countless billions that came before them believe it does indeed have merit. Who are you to say they're wrong?
