Yes. St. Thomas Aquinas proved his existence:
In the "Summa theologiae" Aquinas records his famous five ways which seek to prove the existence of God from the facts of change, causation, contingency, variation and purpose. These cosmological and teleological arguments can be neatly expressed in syllogistic form as below:
Way 1
1. The world is in motion (motus).
2. All changes in the world are due to some prior cause.
3. There must be a prior cause for this entire sequence of changes, i.e. God.
Way 2
1. The world is a sequence of events.
2. Every event in the world has a cause.
3. There must be a cause for the entire sequence of events, i.e. God.
Way 3
1. The world might not have been.
2. Everything that exists in the world depends on some other thing for its existence.
3. The world itself must depend upon some other thing for its existence, i.e. God.
Way 4
1. There are degrees of perfection in the world.
2. Things are more perfect the closer they approach the maximum.
3. There is a maximum perfection, i.e. God.
Way 5
1. Each body has a natural tendency towards its goal.
2. All order requires a designer.
3. This end-directedness of natural bodies must have a designing force behind it. Therefore each natural body has a designer i.e. God.

Everyone has a belief in their higher being. Without faith in themselves and their higher being. What do they have to live for. The reason, I'm not mentioning the word "GOD" is because not everyone in this world is a Christian. I respect everyone else's beliefs are,as well as religous traditions. The real problem is that you have individuals and groups imposing their beliefs on others.

Yea...in a way. Not the christain god or a personal god. I think there is meaning to the universe. Entheogenic substances made me see everything in a new light. I was once spritually blind....I think all athesits should trip on something and then see what they think//
