They can't give an honest response.

If they can't "provide something that cannot be supplied" then they
should keep their stupid yaps shut.

They seem to be too stupid to realise these questions wouldn't even
have been asked it they had the courtesy and common sense not to being
their religion up where it is inappropriate.

They might see nothing wrong with special pleading, inside their
religion.

But in the real world it is not exempt from real world methods and
tools. Like logic, evidence etc.

Of my two local model railroad clubs, I no longer go to the one where
there is religious talk. The other one has it (and politics)
explicitly banned in its rules; there is a reason for this, and the
club even has a couple of ministers as members. We're there to talk
and do model trains.
