Some things I've learned about (at least two particular theists) from this thread:

-Inevitably, disbelief in other gods is tied back to their own belief in God.
-Arguments that are valid against their god are considered more valid against gods that aren't theirs.
-They don't readily accept eyewitness accounts, unless it's for their god.
-They don't hold their god to the same standard they hold other gods
-They ultimately fare no better using their logic against similar logic.
The whole tone of Church teaching in regard to woman is, to the last degree, contemptuous and degrading. - Elizabeth Cady Stanton

Not as much as you're getting crazier.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

I'll help Huggy out here, since I've given up on him accepting any of my challenges. I have some evidence which surpasses his "ball of light", and shows God much more directly.

God is a list of made up definitions, crafted to suit what we didn't understand and what we see.

Sadly no one has any proof the god behind the definitions actually exists, it's a 'what believers believe he must be like' given their own particular religion, experience or indoctrination .

God/gods are simply a made of product of the human mind.
