Whats with all the lame "disprove" questions today? Why can't ANYONE figure out how STUPID of an argument that is? You can't disprove __________ with no evidence to support it, so it must be right!
Honestly, is that what holds some people to a belief system? The fact that nobody can prove it wrong?
Am I just being naive or is that a really bad reason to adhere to ANYTHING?

No. I don't think you're being naive.
If a person believes in the Bible, the Bible says to study to show yourself approved, rightly dividing the word of truth.
If you're an atheist, you should know why you're an atheist, and not use the circular argument, "I'm an atheist because there is no god".
Whatever you are, know WHAT you believe, and know WHY you believe.
Myself, I'm a Christian. I became a Christian about 35 or so years ago, after 20 or so years of believing that Jesus was a liar, a lunatic, a deceiver, and above all else, dead. It wasn't until He actually changed my life, that I had to change my personal opinions about him.
I have very good reason why I believe in Jesus. I trust that everybody has good reason for believing what they believe, and not just because they were raised that way!
Additional comment to Yo Adrian:
With THAT kind of attitude, perhaps you won't be there? God said that He does NOT take pleasure in the death of the wicked, so why would YOU?

Genius, Faith is something you can not see - how would you prove that faith works? By what it has done in your life.
When you pick up a cup of coffee in your mug - you have faith that the handle will hold otherwise you would wonder about it everyday! Small example but look at the point!
If you ever read the bible, you would see all the things Jesus did while on earth and how He never sinned and taught great things unlike anyone ever before or after and people BELIEVED ON HIM. Why because they knew prophecy (that He would come) they saw miracles (with their eyes) and He spoke with authority.
NOW we have the bible thousands of years later to testify to us the truth about God. We read and by the grace of God we believed. It is faith!!!! He brought us to life Spiritually (while unbelievers are dead) and now we see with eyes of faith.
GET IT! I thought not because read this:
1 Cor. 2:14 "The man without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned."

I can't answer for anyone but myself. I have had experiences that I can only attribute to God, there is no other explanation. It doesn't matter what experiences I have had with God, if you don't believe, then you don't believe. It's not up to me to convince you of anything, especially God. S/He's quite capable of proving himself to anyone he chooses.
peace

They are simply ignorant.
Can they disprove the idea that microscopic chocolate volcanoes exist on Mercury? They must exist then.

I can't even begin to understand how ignorant one must truly be to try to make such a statement.
I believe it and it's rational because:
No one's ever seen it
You can't test for it
There's no way to know
I'd like it to be right
It told me its true
That's amazing... When will your thesis be complete?

You can't argue with stupidity. Or "feelings."
It's best to just avoid people like that and wait for them to get through high school.
