Certainly, that makes sense to me........Proves there is a God doesn't it. This has got to be the best question I HAVE EVER SEEN ASKED.

This is a very oppinionated and open ended question...I mean first you would have to assume that anyone answering this question believed in god, then do they think that god created man? There is a lot just involved in that! If god did create man then we wouldn't be here if there was no god so then the answer is no, but...
I think it is all a matter of oppinion, I mean, if there was no sadness then there couldn't be happieness because we wouldn't know what it was like to feel anything different, and if there was no pain then we wouldn't know what it was like to feel good so how would we know the difference? Now, asking if one rules out the other well, if we didn't know it existed then that doesn't mean it doesn't exist, it just means that we are unaware of it because we have nothing to compare it to, right? Now, assuming that we all believe in god, and that we would be here if god didn't exist...the definition for atheist is one who believes that god does not exist therefore, if we all knew for certain, 100% sure that there was no god then yes, according to the definition in the dictionary we would all be atheists, on the other hand there is question as to weather or not we would be aware of it because without the possibility of god why would we even have the term atheist, right?
I hope I have answered your question.

This is a false statement.
Here is an example of a true statement:
There is no God, yet Atheists exist.

Of course there would be atheists. All an atheist is - is a person who does not accept the prevails concept of the deity. What do you call someone who doesn't believe in Allah or buddha.
But your question does prove there is a God, thank you.

No, it is a false statement. Atheists believe there is no God. If they're correct, that doesn't change their opinion.

The gods they come, the they gods go, all built upon what has been worshipped before. Religion believes in evolution! The below link is a very interesting article.

If there were no concept of any sort of god, then there would be nothing to not believe in, eliminating atheists by definition. However, by the entire concept not existing, we are still disbelieving in god by oversight, so you could say we would all be atheists. That's like saying that just because no one has come up with the concept of the Hoodi-Hoodi, then we all disbelieve in the Hoodi-Hoodi.
But now I've created the Hoodi-Hoodi, so the concept is open for belief or disbelief.

If there was no God we would all be atheists without knowing it.

No, we'd all be atheists.
The definition of the word is "without theism". Simple.
Ever notice how the more education one has, the less likely one is to believe in god(s)? There's a reason for that.

Obviously not, since there ARE atheists, and no solid evidence to support the existence of any gods....
