I get your point...I'm an atheist...I do not believe in any deity...but if I don't exist, then surely god can't exist because I wouldn't be here to not believe in him....

Firstly, atheists do exist; I am one. But the existence or non-existence of atheists has nothing whatever to do with the existence or non-existence of god; for that, you have to look for relevant evidence. Unfortunately, there isn't any.

God exist, if you believe in Him or not. There are more people who believe in some sort of Deity than people who believe that there is no God! And the Universe proves it, does a watch require a designer? Yes!! And the Universe is far more complex than a watch! Don't you think it requires a Master Designer? GOD DOES EXIST!!

The way you worded this question is messed up.....Atheists exist....They are people who do not believe in God. God exists in the hearts of people who believe in Him.

Atheists do exist however, it is still a religion. Bill McGinnis said it very well:
Atheism is the religion whose belief about God is that there is no God.
Some Atheists, for their own political reasons, assert that Atheism is not a religion but instead is the total absence of religion. This allows them to spread their Atheistic beliefs freely in societies which insist on "separation of church and state."
But this is like saying that "black," (which physicists define as the total absence of color) is not a color. The car I drive is a big, old Chevrolet, whose color is black. In common practice throughout the world, "black" is understood to be a color, despite the technical definition of the physicists. Likewise, "Atheism" is a religion, despite any technical definitions to the contrary.
If black is a color, then Atheism is a religion.
If Atheism is a religion, then it must be subject to the same legal restrictions imposed by governments on all other religions. In particular, in the United States, the teaching of Atheism must be prohibited wherever the teaching of Christianity is prohibited.
But where is Atheism being taught? Atheism is being taught, by default, in all places where other religions cannot be taught, particularly in the public schools.
When the State mandates that the Theory of Evolution be taught as fact, that is establishing the religion of Atheism, because the Theory of Evolution asserts that all life forms are created not by God, but by pre-existing natural processes. This is pure Atheism! If we are not created by God, then there might as well be no God, for all the difference He makes.
The mere fact that many scientists are Atheists does not entitle them to establish Atheism as our State Religion!
When the State prohibits free discussion of God in the classroom, that is establishing the religion of Atheism. Wherever the State permits Atheistic ideas to be spread but prohibits Theistic ideas, that is establishing the religion of Atheism.

If I don't exist, then don't call the police when I ride off in your car after I grab your TV.
