Sorry... it is impossible to cure willful ignorance and self-delusion with a little text in an internet forum. First, you need to become a rational human being... learn logic, and pick up some critial thinking skills. Then, apply those skills to the fairy tales, superstitions, myths and fantastical delusions that make up your world view. If you succeed in doing that, the willful ignorance and self-delusions will go away all by themselves. But you have to do it yourself... nobody can do it for you.

There is no way to do so. The existence of god can be neither proven nor disproven. This was the conclusion drawn by noted Catholic theologian Hans Kung in his huge book Does God Exist, and I agree with him. It follows that any theory of God is useless: it can make no verifiable predictions. (If that were not so, then a proof of existence/non-existence could be found.) Since no theory of the existence of god is either provable or useful, it is convenient to assume that god does not exist. This means that we must rely on our own intelligence to figure out how the world works, rather than trying to determine it from some allegedly religious text.

If you are religious what's the point of asking the question. There is probably a case to be argued for either side but little case for asking someone to undermine your belief/non-belief. If you have a belief in God, hold on to it. Many find it a harsh existence if they can't really find a point to it.

No one can prove that there is no God, but there are thousands of proves that God is around us in everything created, the variation in day and night, summer, winter, you can tell when the sun will set on a certain day at a certain year as god has created this world so perfectly. You got to be blind if you can not see God's miracles around you!

SCIENCE IS ELIMINATING MODELS OF GOD BUT NOT GOD
Francis Bacon, the famous philosopher, has rightly said that a little knowledge of science makes man an atheist, but an in-depth study of science makes him a believer in God. Scientists today are eliminating models of God, but they are not eliminating God. If you translate this into Arabic, it is La illaha illal la, There is no god, (god with a small ‘g’ that is fake god) but God (with a capital ‘G’).
Surah Fussilat:
"Soon We will show them our signs in the (farthest) regions (of the earth), and in their own souls, until it becomes manifest to them that this is the Truth. Is it not enough that thy Lord doth witness all things?"
[Al-Quran 41:53]

You can't be convinced. This is what is said about Atheists:
2 Peter 3:2-4 (King James Version)
2That ye may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us the apostles of the Lord and Saviour:
3Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,
4And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.
Romans 1:21-23 (King James Version)
21Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
22Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
23And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
So now they have done all thing detestable according to law, that they may have their place in the Lake of Fire. Unless???

Atheists are persecuted for their beliefs. Isn't this what the Bible says will happen to those who believe the truth?

No one is here to convince you of anything.
Look at the positions and reasonings and make your own choice.
