If you can find one REAL atheist, then...wow! If you asked an atheist if God exists, what would they obviously say? Probably something like, "There is no God". Well, guess what? They just made what is called an absolute statement. You can make these, and be 100% sure about them, only if you know everything about everything that applies to the subject matter! Allow me to illustrate: If I said that there was no silver in Canada, then I would have to look under every rock, know what was in every clump of dirt, look inside everyone's jewelry box, check everyone's mouths for silver teeth, check everyone's bodies for piercings with silver metal. I would have to essentially be everywhere at once in order to validly state: There is no silver in Canada. Now, let's take this a bit further. For an atheist to say: "There is no God", that same atheist would have to know everything about everything about the world that we live in, the universe around us, and so much more! They would have to also be everywhere at the same time to make that statement truthfully! They would have to be omniscient, or all-knowing! Now, can any atheist say, "There is no God"? Conversely, to know that there is a God, I would only have to know a little bit, or have a little proof. For example, if, in Canada, I saw a little silver on the ground, then the person who said there was no silver in Canada would be discredited by that little piece of evidence. In the same way, since I can offer up evidence, since I can show proof, or in this case living proof, then I can confidently say, "There IS a God"!

God bless!

Deuteronomy 4:39 NIV
Acknowledge and take to heart this day that the LORD is God in heaven above and on the earth below. There is no other.

Common sense tells you that all the descriptions about God are nonsense. We can prove that many of the descriptions are false, but we cannot prove that God exists just as you can't prove he does. It seems more reasonable given a choice to accept that he does not exist. Believing in God is like believing in pink elephants and unicorns. It is foolish to believe in any of these things since they can not be proven and common sense tells you there are no pink elephants, unicorns or Gods.

I can give evidence to show God doesn't exist. Nothing, outside of mathematics, can be proved.

Evidence that the Christian God does not exist:
1) If such a god existed, and was as active as the early Christians claimed he is, then we should see that evidence not. We don't.
2) The Christian God is defined by the Bible. However, the Bible's definition of God is contradictory, especially between the New and Old Testament God.
3) In looking at complex lifeforms, evidence shows that they don't just come into existence. They develop from simpler forms over millions of years. God is supposedly a complex lifeform that just came into existence. That goes against the prevailing evidence.
4) God is supposed to be omnipresent. However, all attempts to detect any gods have come up negative.
5) If God always existed, then the stories about God would come from the beginning of time. However, the earliest religions were ancestral worship or Sun worship. The Christian religion and even the Judaic religion from which it was based, had a start.
6) There is evidence that the Bible borrowed its stories from many other earlier myths and cults.
7) If there was a real God, the religion wouldn't change over time. There would be a god to set people straight. However, even though people claim to have relationships with Jesus or God, they still all believe different things about him. Unless Jesus is a liar giving everybody different stories, he doesn't exist. There are currently hundreds, if not thousands (depending on how you count them), different Christian religions.

Obviously not. Prove beyond any doubt that Santa Clause doesn't exist and we can talk.

You don't get it. It is IMPOSSIBLE to disprove a negative. So the onus is on those proposing the existence of something to provide evidence. Evidence by itself isn't proof, but it persuades of the veracity of a certain proposition. Evolution would be a good example - there are mountains of evidence for evolution. That doesn't PROVE evolution - but it provides an exceptionally strong grounds for believing its central tenets.

Now, what were we talking about? God? Right, let's see you pile up a small pile of evidence for the existence of God. Anything higher than an anthill will be impressive. Don't forget - "The world is so perfect, you are ALIVE, there must be a God" doesn't count, because I say that proves the existence of the Flying Spaghetti Monster. We're talking evidence. Interested?

Yes. Where 2 or more are gathered, God is supposed to be there. If we analyze the space around this group of 2 or more people using various frequencies and measure the density of the air and all that good stuff we should be able to see if there is anything extra in the space that was not there while only 1 person was present. If there is nothing there then obviously God is not everywhere that 2 or more people are gathered, making the Bible a lie and Bible-God non-existent.

you're making assumptions on defective information. working example, in case you have been maximum dazzling then the greater believers in a inhabitants could recommend that the final well-being of that united states of america could be greater useful than greater secular international locations. France an earthly united states of america with a frequently irreligious inhabitants has the main powerful well-being provider interior the worldwide. the u . s . a ., the main non secular united states of america interior the western worldwide, has the thirty seventh powerful well-being care interior the worldwide, (look it up, stats by using the OECD). in spite of all of those prayers the irreligious French will stay longer, will stay longer devoid of ailment, could have much less psychological well-being subjects, fewer divorces, much less crime, have decrease toddler mortality, fewer drug problems, fewer abortions. My opinion is which you do no longer fairly be attentive to what good judgment is and which you ought to totally learn a topic, getting each and every of the information, globally no longer in undemanding terms domestically, earlier you flow off a million/2 ******. Edit: nicely church attendances is an indicator of being an lively Christian and France it fairly is 12% interior the u . s . a . it fairly is 40 3%. honestly you're actually not claiming that France is a greater Christian united states of america than the u . s . a ..

For Athiests to prove that God does not exist takes one proof.

For a thiest, he has to prove not only is there a god, but also that there is ONLY one god.

Statistically, the odds are against the thiests.

HOwever, neither one can prove God's existence so that is why i am acgonistic. A popular answer does not make it the right answer.

I is as much evidence that the tooth fairy, Easter bunny and Santa clause exists as there is for god.

A fictional story book does not count as evidence.

We do not have to prove something does not exist, it is for the people that have delusional rants that there is a god to prove that one exists.

Can you prove he does?

Fact of reality is, until you see him with your own eyes why should you believe what some guy wearing a robe on Sundays has to say.

I don't believe in Santa, the Easter bunny or the tooth fairy. Why should I believe in God?

Add to that challenge: Can atheists prove that cold and darkness and evil exist? Cold is an absence of heat, darkness an absence of light and evil an absence of God's presence and goodness! A fool sayeth in His heart there is no God. He will not come to the light because his deeds are evil. He is ever learning yet never coming to the knowledge of the truth. He has not retained God in his knowledge therefore God has turned him over to a reprobate mind to do that which is not convenient, including men turning towards men in their lusts and women leaving their "natural" affections and burning in lascivious lusts towards one another, etc.
