There is no direct, observable, or testable evidence that proves the existence of a god or creator. Despite centuries of searching, we have not found verifiable signs of divine intervention or supernatural activity that cannot be explained by natural phenomena. Naturalistic explanations have been successful in explaining the origins and workings of the universe, life, and consciousness. Evolution by natural selection explains the diversity of life without invoking a designer. Cosmology offers models of universe formation without requiring a creator. God of the Gaps. Invoking God to explain the unknown has historically been replaced by natural explanations as knowledge progresses. Some theists calling the universe "God" is unnecessary and risks mystification. We should embrace the clarity that the universe is awe-inspiring enough without inventing a divine label for it. Reason and evidence, not philosophy alone, guide us to truth. Religion and Spiritualism must be forgotten and not allowed to flourish in place of objective reality.
