While I'm sure a lot of people might answer this question with, "such proof does not exist," I'm going to respect your question and answer. Personally, being atheist, it would only effect how I interacted with people of religious bent. Instead of debating the existence of God, I'd probably debate the "undeniable proof" and their questioning of it's validity.
I'm sure you know, as many people here will tell you, that the idea of "undeniable proof against God's existence" is a completely ludicrous idea, but that does not change its philosophical implications. Unfortunately, even if there were such proof, most Christian, Buddhist, Hindu, etc. people would still believe as they believe. I guess, deep down, a lot of people simply need the stability (idealogically) of a God or religion and there's no way to take that from somebody who doesn't want it taken away. For those people, I say keep it. After all, atheism helps me psychologically. Who am I to deny another's beliefs?

That's a very vague question. You could ask "What if..." all day long and there may not be an answer. It all depends on you! Is the existence of God a matter of question to you? Does this play a role in how you live from day to day, and have some bearing on the decisions that you make? It all comes down to you! You have the freewill to make a choice and choose which way you will go, God or no God.
Good day, God bless

For hundreds of years, human beings "knew" that typhoon gods brought about thunder and lightning. guess what: a hundred% of the individuals who concept that have been lifeless incorrect. that is not any longer purely like the gods stopped present day the minute we discovered a organic reason for the observed phenomena. the clarification is easy: certainty isn't democratic. whether or no longer a god exists has no longer something to do with what number human beings have faith in it. You *can* all be incorrect whether you opt to admit to the possiblity or no longer. the version is that i'm keen to aid you already know precisely what i could want to have faith in a god: a valid deductive argument exhibiting the mandatory existence of a god, or empirical information of a deity. If billions of believers international can no longer grant, the priority does not relax with me. And my "disproof" of god is comparable to your disproof of leprechauns. be at liberty to objective and teach that leprechauns are not authentic. once you recognize you are able to no longer, ask your self why you do no longer have faith in them regardless of this certainty. At that element, you are able to desire to understand why the load of information rests entirely on a believer's shoulders. EDIT: information the bible is incorrect? -Snakes can no longer communicate. -Donkeys can no longer communicate. -Virgins do no longer provide beginning. -human beings do no longer upward push from the lifeless. -human beings can no longer walk on water. -human beings won't be able to order mountains to leap into the sea. -that is not any longer a threat for a international flood to have befell in the history of mankind with out leaving any geological checklist everywhere in the international. -The earth won't stop rotating decrease than and situation, even for a conflict to be gained. -DNA mapping has shown that our final consumer-friendly ancestor lived a hundred and twenty,000 years in the past, no longer in the previous few thousand years. -that is not any longer a threat to be sure the destiny, and for this reason are anticipating the tip of the international. -eating a fruit does not reason somebody who has by no capacity heard of clothing to realize that he's bare. -easy in the international does not have existed previously the solar. ...want i circulate on? No quantity of consumer-friendly experience (in spite of the fact which you will desire to define that) excuses those errors.

When a man is empty of ideas any assumption will do,although some can be dangerous.Attempting or doing something you do not know can be dangerous as playing with time bomb or live wire.

Do Buddhists believe in a creator god?
No, we do not. There are several logical reasons for this. The Buddha, like modern scientists, sociologists and psychologists, believed that religious ideas and especially the god idea have their origins in fear. The Buddha says:
"Gripped by fear men go to sacred mountains, sacred groves, sacred trees and shrines." *Dhammpada 188
Primitive man found himself in a dangerous and hostile world, the fear of wild animals, of not being able to find enough food, of injury or disease, and of natural phenomena like thunder, lightning and volcanoes was constantly with him. Finding no security, he created the idea of god in order to give him comfort in good times, courage in times of danger and consolation when things went wrong. To this day, you will notice that people become more religious at times of crises, you will hear them say that the belief in a god gives them the strength they need to deal with life. You will hear them explain that they believe in god because they prayed in time of need and their prayer was answered. All this seems to support the Buddha’s teaching that the god-idea is a response to fear and frustration. The Buddha taught us to try to understand our fears, to lessen our desires and to calmly and courageously accept the things we cannot change. He replaced fear, not with irrational belief but with rational understanding.
The second reason the Buddha did not believe in a creator god is because there does not seem to be any evidence to support this idea. There are numerous religions, all claiming that they alone have god’s words preserved in their holy book, that they alone understand god’s nature, that their god exists and that the gods of other religions do not. Some claim that god is masculine, some that she is feminine and others that it is neuter. They are all satisfied that there is ample evidence to prove the existence of their god but they laugh in disbelief at the evidence other religions use to prove the existence of another god. It is not surprising that with so many different religions spending so many centuries trying to prove the existence of their gods that still no real, concrete, substantial or irrefutable evidence has been found. Buddhists suspend judgement until such evidence is forthcoming.
The third reason the Buddha did not believe in a creator god is that the belief is not necessary. Some claim that the belief in a god is necessary in order to explain the origin of the universe. But this is not so. Science has very convincingly explained how the universe came into being without having to introduce the god-idea. Some claim that belief in god is necessary to have a happy, meaningful life. Again we can see that this is not so. There are millions of Atheists, free-thinkers and Buddhists, who live useful, happy and meaningful lives without belief in a creator god. Some claim that belief in god’s power is necessary because humans, being weak, do not have the strength to help themselves. Once again, the evidence indicates the opposite. One often hears of people who have overcome great disabilities and handicaps, enormous odds and difficulties through their own inner resources, through their own efforts and without belief in a god. Some claim that god is necessary in order to give man salvation. But this argument only holds good if you accept the theological concept of salvation and Buddhists do not accept such a concept. Based on his own experience, the Buddha saw that each human being had the capacity to purify the mind, develop infinite love and compassion and perfect understanding. He shifted attention from the heavens to the heart and encouraged us to find solutions to our problems through self-understanding.
But if there is no creator god how did the universe get here?
All religions have myths and stories which attempt to answer this question. In ancient times, when man simply did not know, such myths were adequate, but in the 20th century, in the age of physics, astronomy and geology, such myths have been superseded by scientific fact. Science has explained the origin of the universe without recourse to the god-idea.

God cannot be disproven.
We would have to explore every inch of the universe and beyond to discredit God.
The day you can find a scientist that can cover every inch of the universe. You let me know.

It's unlikely to happen since no one can ever "prove" unicorns don't exist, the same with leprechauns etc...
As far as creationists and christian fundies go, there are none so blind as those WILL NOT see..
