    Simple conclusion to this arguement

    It is impossible to prove a negative.

    This means that you cannot disprove something- it is impossible to do so.
    One cannot say "unicorns exist" because there is no proof that they do not exist, that is futile.

    So, until conclusive evidence of a magical man flying through the sky (who created himself, somehow, and also created robbers, murderers, and sinners) is found, there is no god. Guilty until proven innocent analogy.

    It's impossible to prove a negative means you can't claim a negative either.

    Even though I follow a religion, I cannot say god exists 100%. But if he does exist he does not "Fly" around..
    When you think of the word god you think something you cannot comprehend. If god does exist which I hope he does then I'm pretty sure
    we cannot comprehend anything about who how what he is and how he created himself.

    The whole point of religion is that you have faith that said thing is true without need for proof of any kind so if you're trying to prove your religion is the right one then you are doing the whole thing wrong

    Well I have yet to see the reason why faith should be required at all in the case of religion.

    yes without evidence debate is meaningless, personal belief on the basis of meaningless assumptions is personal preferences, though not realistic. And these individuals will be eliminated by natural selection

    Waiting for evidence can be a religious thing too, for example no one can prove me that lucid dreaming is possible, so if i am waiting for proof i would never know if i can or not lucid dream.

    The celestial teapot thought experiment supports this point.

    In my ever so humble opinion....

    ...... organized religion is a scam. Except for the Flying Spaghetti Monster. That's real. And I've a snug fitting colander to prove it. Christianity (Catholics, Baptists, and the nearly endless other sub catagories of Chrisitanity) are controlled by elderly white dudes. Judaism, Islam (although elderly Imans are not white) these religions follow the same script. Men dominate women. And those not subscribing to these religions are considered heritics or worse. These men have control and are not about to give it up.

    It constantly amazes me that people of color can follow Christianity. A religion that still supports slavery within it's scriptures. The southern states in the US would love to go back to the 50's or earlier. I do despise the south. And I'm an elderly white dude that grew up there. I escaped to the west coast post haste when I was able to, that is.

    LOL this is a dumb argument. You cannot prove god DOESN'T exist either so do not make this claim. If the universe started from a single point, who created that single point? 0 cannot just become 1
