What would you accept as evidence of faeries in your garden? Or gnomes? or Leprechauns?
Apologists can never break even with Gemli in an argument unless they approach him with complete honesty. That means never begging the question by claiming your assumptions are true. State what you believe and how that benefits you. The more pretense you bring to your arguments, the more you lose to Gemli. Hope that helps.

Midgley has made in effort in that regard:

As Dr. Midgley would point out from his latest cognitive test, "Person, Gemli, Dan, Camera, Gemli".
