Solarwave,
No, I don't believe in the IPU(BBHH) it is just a thought experiment as Eilonnwy described it. We know you are talking about the Christian God and we also agree with the definition that he, according to the bible, acts in the physical realm. Many of us are atheists because there is no evidence that he has done anything and that is what causes our doubt.
I've learned that people will need to work out their own belief systems, so whatever proofs we can come up with will most likely be waved away much like any proof that you can come up with. I try to keep an open mind and read what is put in front of me about God. I was a Christian, in some form, for years, a deist for a few years, and now I am an atheist.
No amount of raw assertions are going to convince me, but it sounds like you have that sorted out already.
Cheers,
Rhizo
