He can't used faith as a justification for belief, and must prove it with evidence. Of course, positive claims require positive evidence, and that is what I expect.

to engage in difficult and poignant conversations that are usually avoided. Take for example Kara Walker’s work located at The Metropolitan Museum of Art: After The Deluge.

After The Deluge accentuates on race, class, and the polluted waters that were created by Hurricane Katrina. This public art piece consists of a plethora of black silhouette figures
