Unfortunately, politics has a way of creeping into most aspects of life. DA has answered your post so there's no point in repeating what he's said. I will add this, though -

My reasons for introducing politics to the subject:

(a) Its closely related to religion
(b) Its agendas and decisions are very often strongly influenced by the prevailing national religion
(c) Politicians can and do manipulate populations via their religions
(d) It has a direct bearing on the matter under discussion, i.e. 'Evidence for God'

To repeat my point: People who claim to believe in God - presumably because they have evidence, intuitive or otherwise - have found themselves supporting a war in which their countries (U.K. included) have slaughtered hundreds of thousands of men women and children, and maimed untold numbers of others.

Their leaders told them it was right. Does their God also tell them it was right?
