so evidence that has not yet been discovered is known?
If it is not known, it is not evidence.

Did the Greek Mythological stories say that Zeus & the Titans were observed to walk on Earth by the larger population?
As far as I know, they were visible and even tangible, to the point of fathering children.
LamarkNewAge writes:
Were the Sons of God in Genesis 6 unknown by the world?
There's no reason to think they were unknown.
LamarkNewAge writes:
Should we be aware of these "Fallen Angels" and their offspring (not just "in those days" but "after") or will they simply be laughed at as fiction?
If there is evidence of their existence, we should be aware of them. Otherwise, we can laugh at them as fiction.
LamarkNewAge writes:
The "New Testament" has "faith" as a major issue...
Does it? Or has that doctrine been superimposed on it?
LamarkNewAge writes:
...so I suppose that throws out the apparently visible....
I'll point out what I keep telling Phat: In John 20, Jesus offered concrete evidence to the disciples and than He offered the same evidence to Thomas.

How would it change the consensus of Western Christianity?
