Atheism is a religion ... at least you believe in something ... nothing beyond what you can see or prove. In other words you take responsibility for your own actions which would be nice if everyone could do that hehe. Oh to answer your question of course you can't see God you're an Atheist ... even if you did see him/her you would never believe it was God. He prolly respects Atheists very much because they are really scientists in disguise and would not infringe on your freewill to believe there is no God. The only true way to believe is through intense reasoning ... trust me I was an Athiest too once.

According to the accounts of the Bible, no one has ever looked on God’s face, for God Himself says “But, you cannot see my face, for no one may see me and live” (Exodus 33:20). It is not only for the sinful man that He says this but also for the believers in Jesus Christ.
Moses asked this of God and God answered that He would show him His Glory. The Hebrew word for glory in this verse is ‘Kabowd’ meaning the culmination of God’s goodness and sovereignty.
Can this Divine Spirit be seen as men see each other? Our eyes are not created to see the spiritual things of this world. Our bodies cannot withstand to behold the awesomeness of God. Surely the Creator who made the whole universe is beyond our ability to envision.
Has anyone ever seen the Image of God? God has revealed Himself to many of the Old Testament characters but in diverse manifestations: Adam, Gen 3:8-21; Jacob, at Bethel in Genesis 35:7, 9; Abraham, Gen 18:2-33; Israel in Judges 2:1-5; Gideon in Judges 6:11-24; Solomon in 1 Kings 3:5, Isaiah 6:1-5, Ezekiel 1:26-28.
In Numbers 12:8, God speaks of Moses saying, “With him I speak face to face, clearly and not in riddles; he sees the form of the Lord.” Moses saw God as much as he was able with earthly eyes.

I have a quick question. What would you tell a blind person? They can't see the world. They know it's there though, right? They know people exist. Just because they can't see with their physical two eyes doesn't mean they can't see in the most important way. -through faith and knowing that something is there. They don't need to visually see it in order to know.
That's a no brainer.
God is not a physical thing. How can you see something that isn't physical? -Visually speaking, that is.
To believe is to truly see.
I don't have to see my ancestors to know they existed. I derived from somewhere. I don't have to get cut to know there's blood in my body. I don't have to see my unborn baby to know she's inside there moving around.
Emotions are an earthly thing but they're not physical. They're natural in human beings. You can't see emotions but you can see how people react to them. But the emotions themselves, you don't see. You know they're there, however.
You can't see air but you know that you're breathing it.
There are a lot of things you can't see with your physical eyes. Just because you can't see it with your eyes, does not mean it does not exist. Who created your eyes? My answer would be God. You can disagree. That's all right. But that answers why you can't "visually" see God.
But God speaks to me in many ways and I've had proof of the existence of God through my FAITH of his existence. Without faith, you'll never see so, there's no sense in asking really.

God's creation can be seen and all that is around us is created by God.
It is like me saying I do not believe you have a mind because I never seen it but in reality I know you have a mind because you can think and reason and also were created in the image of God

My dear Brothers and Sisters,
If you want to know the answer of your asked question,then first, you have to answer my question.
Because by thinking on these questions,may you be able to get the right path of life.
there is only one right path in the game of puzzles.......
1.Can you see your knowledge?
2.Can you make others to feel your pain, ex: head ache.
3.Can any body show me PEACE,Happiness???????
If yes , then provide proof, if No,then you have to accept that ALLAH (GOD) exists.
some things are visible in this world but next beautiful world willbe visible after death.
this world has got super computer, is that computer able to give back life to died person!!!!!!!!!!1

I feel the presence of God. I will see Him face to face after I leave this earth. Why can't you see wind? It is there & it can be felt, it is REAL.

For an invisible God, there are sure plenty of images of him in churches and museums, eh?

Okay the best way i think to put it is that earth is like a test of your faith in Him...You shouldn't have to see him, you are suppose to seek him.
You will tho before the gates of heaven when you time here is done.
