Says who? I have been around for 62 some odd years and to date, not one single person has presented anything that could even be remotely considered evidence, let alone proof, for the possibility that there might be a god. Everything is hearsay, I read it in a book, anecdotes and opinion.
So again, Who says? What is your evidence. I am not even asking for proof because I know that even evidence of a non-existent being is impossible to come by.
Science, however, has demonstrated, through empirical evidence, how the universe possibly began and how it works.

To be fully accurate, snowflake's conclusion is one that can only be reached if you don't think about it.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

I am sure the big words (hearsay, anecdotes, science, empirical and evidence) will throw him off.

If God was required for there to be stuff, and there is stuff, then there must have been God.

There is absolutely nothing that suggests or insinuates this was all created by some god unless one is to start with the assumption that god must have created all this and then contort all available information to fit the assumption. If one relies on facts and evidence, it is quite obvious that there is no god.

There are probably a gazillion+ universes and not all went well. We just happen to be in one that did.

There is a sample size of one, beyond that is merely a metaphysical speculation but nice try though.

There has never or will ever be evidence for God.
Only the search for God.
Stilll we play this game...
I'm 40 years old and I've been trying to dissuade people about God for 20 years. And no one has ever listened to a word I've said.
