Atheists: If there was a God would he know things you don't know? Is it possible that God exists but you just haven't discovered that information yet?

Of course not! It amazes me to see people who can't accept that there is a creator. If you look around you ( in your home) you cant point out one thing that wasn't had crafted or produced by some sort of physical being. Charles Darwin idea's are full of holes yet we accept it as fact. We are so stuck on our self that we cant accept that someone could be more than us. And to the person who answered " YES, I EXSIST" that my friend is a matter of opinion. I would hate to know this was all I had to look forward too. I would just about Garentee that if this person is from the U.S. they probley believe that the government was behind 9/11.

If there WAS a deity, it would know plenty more than me.
However, my atheism arises not from lack of evidence for its existence, but proof against its existence.
If there is a deity, theistic in nature, then free will is a necessary consequence (otherwise revelation [the very point of theism] is pointless and moot).
Free will is provably false (split brain studies, partial brain anasthesia studies, stroke studies).
Therefore, theistic deities do not exist.
This is simple proof by modus tollens.
I yield, however, that this does not rule out deism. However, deism is consequentially identical to atheism, while requiring one more a priori. As such, I find occam's razor sufficient principle (but admit not proof) to discard deism.

Smarter than God?
Wow, what a strange question.
Those who believe in God will say no, those who don't can't really give a meaningful answer, I'm not sure there's a point to this question.
My answer is no, because I don't think God exists.

No.
God is an omniscient supreme being.
God can design and build the universe.
I am a fallible human being.
I can barely plan and prepare a Thanksgiving dinner.
With love in Christ.

I do not start believing in stuff just because there is a possibility that the proof for its existance has not been found yet.
Bring forth some tangible proof and then I will start believing.

I am smarter than any figment of anyone's imagination. And my conscience is cleaner than God's, I did not burn "witches" at the stake, gave basis to religious wars, encouraged the Holocaust etc. etc.

Of course not. How can the finite (i.e. me) surpass the infinite?
How weighty to me are your thoughts, O God!
How vast is the sum of them!
try to count them—they are more than the sand;
I come to the end —I am still with you. (Psalm 139)

First of all, atheists believe there is NO God; AGNOSTICS believe there may be, but so far they haven't concluded that there is one.
As to your question: "Thou shalt not tempt thy Lord thy God."

That's like asking me if I'm smarter than a rock. Of course.
Actually, no it's not, because rocks exist.
