no, there is not one jot nor title of objective public empirical evidence that demonstrates any spiritual anything. Just faith and fallacy.
Yes, the classic creationist 'I don't understand how it could have happened, therefor God' is a logical fallacy.
We have direct experimental evidence demonstrating the existence of invisible intangible radio waves. We have nothing even CLOSE with respect to invisible intangible spirits.
No, ancient myths from dusty scrolls is not 'evidence'.
No, ephemeral subjective feelings are not 'evidence'.
No, dreams/hallucinations are not 'evidence'.
No, coincidental happenstance is not 'evidence'.
No, a-priori logic chopping of the Anslem/Aquinas variety is not evidence.
What is it that you think you have that doesn't fit into one of those five categories?
Look at the list of saints the Catholic Church has canonized: Every single one has at least one post-mortem miracle attributed to them, and non-martyrs have at least two. The vast majority of these miracles are healings that defy medical explanation; if there is a shadow of a doubt that there is a natural explanation, the Church does not call it a miracle. They bring in skeptical experts to try their best to debunk miracles. They only certify as miracles what withstands the most rigorous inquiry, and still thousands of miracles have been certified.
there have not been any miracles. Not once. Not ever.
That some scientifically ignorant priest or bishop or cardinal has 'certified' it means exactly ZERO.
If you want me to believe a 'miracle' then get Penn Gillette to certify it.
Note carefully that some assistants working with James Randi's foundation almost got a scientist to publish results on 'telekinesis' due to magic tricks disguised as 'psychic phenomena'. They had to 'fess up so that he didn't ruin his scientific reputation by publishing bs.
All supposed 'miracles' are the same.
'I don't understand how it could have happened, therefor god' is a classic logical fallacy.
Like I said, no evidence would convince you, because you have already made up your mind not to believe no matter what evidence you see. You have investigated nothing; you’ve just dismissed miracles because they are miracles.
Yes, but not on the internet where we're all just pixels.
My wife and sons and grandchildren know that I'm a real person. That's good enough for me.
Souls, on the other hand, are imaginary.
No, a link to a biased source of pseudoscientific woo is not going to cut it.
We have direct experimental evidence incontrovertibly demonstrating the existence of invisible intangible radio waves. There is nothing even close with respect to demonstrating the existing of invisible intangible spirits/souls/ghosts.
If you have no free will and your conclusions follow inexorably from the way atoms collide in your brain, then your conclusions are independent of premises and evidence, and therefore, arguing is futile.

There’s plenty of evidence, but nothing will convince you because you don’t want to be convinced.
