I think a lot of Christians hold onto the idea that you can't use empirical evidence to deny something that is metaphysical - which is true. However, what they don't seem to understand is that Hitchens and Dawkins have never 100% denied the existence of God, etc. What they do is attack the logic behind religious fanaticism and the belief itself, which is also true. You cannot claim to be a rational person and claim that you are 100% sure that God exists, because rationalism relies primarily on empirical evidence.
