You need to prove that the world came into existence in any other way than God to prove the nonexistence of said god.
Even if you prove that the world came into being through natural means, there could still be a supreme being outside of our reality.
If you don't believe that you can say "There is no god" then obviously none of my statements have been directed at you. I'm saying neither side can prove with certainty, and you're pretty much arguing with me and saying THE SAME THING
If u r an atheist, u should be familiar with the fact that the burden of proof is always the responsibility of the claimant. As an atheist u should also know that one cannot prove a negative...and we need not anyway, since the theist has the burden of proof. And, I'm truly baffled that as an atheist, u should know that we don't claim "there is no god." We can't claim that for reasons previously stated. We...or I, say, "I don't believe ur god claims b/c u provide no evidence.
...."Before ya know it, we're singing in church." Ha!
.... "And around perdition's flames before I give him up!"
This last ST quote reminded me of Achilles chilling words to Hector that, "in his chariot, he'd drag Hector's dead body around the city of Troy!"
What I liked most though, was the words you chose in how you put it to veritas48 that all the gimmicks and attempts at subterfuge, simply won't work. They cannot substantiate the claim that their god's exists.
I was advocating that neither side can prove anything definitively. If I were commenting on a video supporting Christianity, I'd talk about how they place all their beliefs in a book without any sort of evidence.
I'm actually an atheist. A nihilist, even. I don't support religion, but I don't support blindly claiming that God doesn't exist simply based on a lack of evidence. You can't prove there is no "Ghost god", and they can't prove there is.
U said; "Am I advocating religion? No.I'm advocating open mindedness"
I don't believe u.
To say that atheists r not open minded is absurd. We freely admit that we don't have all the answers. Xians on the other hand, arrogantly proclaim they do!! Now that's what u call close minded.
Atheists don't say there is no god. Nothing is 199% certain or knowable.But we do say there's no evidence 4 any ghost-gods...not that I've seen, and why commit & submit, to a belief that is untenable?
fucking well said.

So, in sum, shut the fuck up. You're just trying to start a debate and show how smart you are.
If you wanna be taken seriously, learn to type.
