This is for all of you who believe it can not be proven that God exists, but anyone can answer (just to keep it fair AND fun!)

To save you some time, All of these answers about how some sense (sight, hearing, etc) are proof - AREN'T.
There was a book written about a person who theorised that our concept of the world and everything in it was about as well understood as the universe is to an ant.
So please, try and come up with something that is at the very least entertaining. That whole "I can feel it when I shoot myself in the head" crap doesn't cut it.

God has been proven over and over but unbelievers refuse to hear or flat out deny his testimony!

um..how can we prove anything exists? the whole world could be a figment of our imagination as far as we know. or maybe someone elses imagination...we could be puppets on a string for the crazed person who is the only one that exists. and they keep us thinking we can control ourself but really cant. hmmm some powerful force is at work here. the world could be like the Sims 2, wed be the sims and one person would be the player.
a very complicated question, indeed. so no i guess none of us can.
let me know if im analyzing too much

I can, beyond a reasonable doubt....
To prove something exists, you must be able to detect that thing...Either with our five senses or a device such as a sonar...A "feeling" or notion or belief does not count...I can prove my existence by calling you, meeting with you...Of course, you could conclude that I am a figment of your imagination, but that's where the UNREASONABLE doubt comes in...
EDIT: I think our problem is the word "proof." I'm not sure what definitions you are using, but I think as English speakers we generally agree that it is something like overwhelming evidence. If you're using another definition so that you can "prove" that no one can "prove" anything, it is a waste of time. It does not suggest that there is or is not a God.

death and taxes and in both I exist. Gee, let's see:
10 bucks say that if I had the possibility, I could stand in front of every person on this earth to confirm I am here, although sometimes I'm not

If you used the same criteria for your belief in God as you do everything else in life, you would believe in the Easter Bunny and Santa Claus.
Obviously, you missed your chance to ask Santa Claus for a brain last Christmas. Oh well, maybe the Easter Bunny will hide you one for Easter. Alas, you don't have a brain, so how would you find it ?

Do i need to? I am quite plum happy in my delusions thank you very much. Isn't life about the pursuit of happiness? It also pleases me to wear socks, they appear through nerve stimulous to keep them warm when they rest on a cold floor. Do they actually keep my feet warm? who cares? as long as i am happy and get let out of my jacket every so often i am as happy as a clam.
We live through our senses, and percieve things through experience and whatever other filters our brain feeds us, to a mexican 5 degrees celcius is freezong cold weather (even though water freezes at 0) to a canadian that's a wet t-shirt party weather right there. makes the weather perky. but who is to say that our senses aren't lieing to us? think the matrix style stuff, or halucinegenic drugs, a person on shrooms is absolutely convinced that their hamburger is going to get them for eating thier friends.
so once again i am happy as i am, with my socks.

I exist because if I didn't then who is typing this? Wait. Maybe someone else typed it while I wasn't looking....hmmm that was rude of them. Just for that I will give them a thumbs down.

Go walk into a wall. Then come back and tell us if you felt any pain. If you did, then you exist.
