maybe i am using the wrong dictionary?
merriam-webster on evidence said:
1 a : an outward sign : INDICATION b : something that furnishes proof : TESTIMONY; specifically : something legally submitted to a tribunal to ascertain the truth of a matter
2 : one who bears witness; especially : one who voluntarily confesses a crime and testifies for the prosecution against his accomplices
- in evidence 1 : to be seen : CONSPICUOUS <trim lawns ... are everywhere in evidence -- Amer. Guide Series: N.C.> 2 : as evidence

is not the bible and the holy scriptures "evidence" to christians?
are not the holy men or prophets or other religiously important people "evidence" to the christians?

If i wrote a book saying that what you just said was stupid. Would it be an evidence or my opinion ? It's not because something is written that it is something that been proven.
What your doing right now is twisting meanings of word to fit what you want.

yes it could be USED as evidence
you could come to me and tell me that what i said was stupid and use the book and what it contains as evidence
but this would be severely flawed because of the amount of bias that would be involved
and maybe you should reread the definition that i have given you for evidence.. i would be greatly obliged if you would enlighten me to where it says that evidence must be "proven"
unless you would like to dispute the definition provided by merriam-webster
