Notice how religious people claim to see evidence of God’s work all around them.
But they can only see it after the fact. I am not aware of any case in which a theist said “If God exists, we would expect to see X. Now we haven’t seen X yet, but God exists so we probably will observe X some time in the near future.” And then we observed X.
Religious people do this all the time; they call it “fulfilling prophecies”. Atheists usually discover that such prophecies are hopelessly vague, but theists disagree; they believe the prophecies to be quite specific; or, at least, specific enough for their purposes, given the fact that their God obviously exists.
