Ah, but gravity is a "provable" theory: you can "demonstrate" it.
There is no proof outside of the Word of God and the testimony of Christians. That's all you get.
I used to be an atheist, just like you. And I was a hard core Star Wars fanatic.
On a Monday night in September 1983, when I was almost 19 years old, Brother John asked me if he could show me what the Bible said about eternal life. And I said, "Please show me."
And he showed me that I was a sinner on my way to hell and there wasn't a thing I could do to change it. But God nailed his only begotten Son to a cross and shed his blood in my place, to buy back my wicked hellbound soul, and offered the trade as a free gift. And the Holy Spirit convicted me and I took the gift. It's been 23 1/2 years; I'm 42 now and I'm still saved. Praise God I'm saved.
3 But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:
4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
- 2Cor 4:3-4
The fact that you can't see the light of the gospel of Christ is proof that you are lost. Satan is able to make you blind. Every genuine Christian on this forum, including myself, will agree that we had spiritual blindness before we were saved and "saw the light" after we got saved. I ask every new Christian I meet the same question, and every one gives me the same answer: pre-salvation blindness and post salvation sight.
How's that?

In order for you to say that He 'learned' things, that means He is a created being.
Since, He made a Commandment to not worship 'idols', that would mean He told us to not worship Him also; IF He were created.
Because, He told us to not worship 'idols', that means He is a Supreme Being who just knows all things. We in our faith and trust of Him, believe that this is possible.
If someone or something makes a law that will eventually invalidate themself; would that make them Supreme Being or a result of being created by or from something else?
Let's take this from another angle:
Mohammed never said "I am the way, the truth, and the life". He knew he was created by a Superor Being.
Buddha never said "I am the way, the truth, and the life", he knew he was a created being.
Only one person has ever said this - Yeshua / Christ Jesus. He knew that He was part of a Supreme Being and not created!
1 John 1.1-5 "In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with Yahweh, and the Word was Yahweh. He was in the beginning with Yahweh. All things came into being through Him, and without Him nothing was made. What has come into being in Him was life, and the life was the Light of all people. The Light shines in the darkness and the darkness did not overcome it"

Some things are meant to remain a secret. God is a truly powerful and loving being. He wanted an Earth filled with life, so he created it. How he did so is one of our world's many wonders.

Gravity is not a theory. It is the "Law" of gravity. Try to defy it and see what happens.
As there are physical laws of the universe, there are also spiritual laws.
One of these spiritual laws is this:
There is a God. You are not Him.

Well, we're often told by supporters of intelligent design that intelligence must come from intelligence. Thus we gained our intelligence from God. And God gained God's intelligence from... wait, there was nothing before God, right? Hmm... (mutters to self) Intelligence must come from intelligence, but nothing came before God, who is intelligent...
I'll get back to you on this one.

Check out the Case for a Creator and the Case for Faith and the Case for Christ. All by Lee Strobel. If you like to do some thinking, that's a pretty fair place to start.

I asked God to prove that He doesn't exist, and He didn't do anything.
This proves not only that God does exist, but that He is logical enough not to do something that is impossible.

Jesus said that those who look for signs live in an evil generation...
In every miracle he performed, the person healed or changed had faith first. That's the difference. Faith. If you don't have it, you will never be convinced.

God resists the proud, but He gives grace to the humble.
