I'm not so sure that MarchHare did claim that all the God claims are identical. He said he rejects all supernatural claims for the same reason - to wit a lack of evidence.
By the way, that was the point I was attempting to make in one of my long winded posts. My default position on all claims, supernatural or otherwise, is skepticism until sufficient evidence is provided. If you claim you have a dog, I may believe you based on you seeming like a nice guy. If you say you have a 300lb Pug I will probably need a bit more evidence, like a picture or to meet this monstrosity. If you say you have a 300lb invisible magic pug... well, I'll need just a bit more evidence than you claiming he is standing at your feet.
Similarly, if you claim that the universe is an expansion of some god-like creators will, spreading its soul (and/or souls) throughout the universe, I'll need a bit more proof that you saying so.
