I might become a Muslim for the sense of community.

I am agnostic but have been lonely af for so long. I feel like in these difficult times it is good to have a strong community where people can mutually come together.

Plus, I like their food.

If you're looking for meaning do some volunteer work, joining a religion so you can start calling people you've never met 'brother' and 'sister' is the most asinine thing you could do.

aside from the sense of community, Islam is also true

Seriously? Some unproven entity spoke some vague ideas of how life should be to an illiterate wanderer in the desert. It's just another human construct to make us feel better about dying.

Surely its time for our alleged intelligent species to move past such superstitious nonsense and accept we are all mortal and have a use by date !

if someone were to posit to you that said "unproven entity" does exist, what reasons and/or evidence would you accept

Many observational miracles that everybody can witness, particularly those mentioned in a holy scripture.
Having a scientific phenomenon that cannot be explained scientifically, but can merely be explained by god making said phenomenon happen.
A current, universal message from god that everybody receives at the same time.
To instantly prevent/stop all suffering around the world.
…basically anything that can only and only be explained by god.

That's a great question! I suppose I would want to see evidence that justifies the non-existence of all the other Gods we have heard of through time. Also the evidence would probably need to come from (let's call it God to make it easier) God itself as otherwise it would just be another human trying to convince us from a human perspective - which is my main point that Gods are made up by us to help order society, provide a focus for what comes after death so we don't all decide to simply live however we want during the time we have. The 'God' could show me how and why they didn't reveal self to other civilisations through history of mankind.

When you say the evidence needs to come from God directly, what mechanism would God use to communicate it to us? Would you accept a claim from a human that they have been given revelation directly from God, and that they have been tasked to spread that message?

The only scripture I'm aware of which claims to be the explicit word of God, and is intended for all of humanity, is the Quran. And the man who claimed it was revealed to him was responsible for delivering it and explaining its message. As Muslims we affirm that God did indeed send revelation to other men throughout history and civilisations.

Any scripture (Old/New Testament, Quran, Vedas, etc.) can be tested on the consistency of its claims and historicity. If a scripture does claim to be the word of God, and that there is an afterlife, the opportunity cost of not looking into that claim is quite a hefty one, wouldnt you say

you do know that there's no such thing as "Muslim food" right?
the Muslim faith has billions of followers and each one of them have different cuisines and cultures, not all of which have a strong sense of community

As a Muslim myself, happy to answer any questions regarding the Muslim faith, and of course I am sure the local Mosque will be more than happy to welcome you if you wish to observe sermons etc, but that alone is not enough to join a religion

yeah, especially considering this person wants to become Muslim for the sake of community and if they regret their decision later on, the backlash they'll receive won't be worth it
