I've just woken up. You expect me to be replying to you at 4am?
But please quote properly and don't format the font and change the size otherwise the tags litter the post for everyone else. For example, I have done the same to this post to demonstrate . You must have deliberately mangled up that previous post by copying everything into it and getting rid of the quote tags.If you want someone to respond to you, make it easy for them to do so.
You are also just repeating what I have already answered so I don't know what I am supposed to reply to.
Anyway, getting ready to go to work now.

Your "proof" is trash, bro. It's the same thing we see around here all the time.
"Blah blah first cause blah blah god of the gaps blah blah Pascal's wager."
Pass. Spin. Click. Repeat.
Verbatim from the mouth of Jesus (retranslated from a retranslation of a copy of a copy):
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you too will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. How can you see your brother's head up his ass when your own vision is darkened by your head being even further up your ass? How can you say to your brother, 'Get your head out of your ass,' when all the time your head is up your own ass? You hypocrite! First take your head out of your own ass, and then you will see clearly who has his head up his ass and who doesn't." Matthew 7:1-5 (also Luke 6: 41-42)

The it being anything that can't be measured. Whether it is God, space unicorns, a soul, ghosts or non-corporeal hyper-dimensional waffle makers.
If it has no discernible effect on reality then you can't prove that it exists.

Mariosep is doing the same with me.
Repeating the same questions, ignoring the responses and then saying that I am the one who has walked away.

You were the first person to refer to an 'it' in the quote below. Now you're asking me to define what 'it' is.

Dear colleague Mathilda, first forgive me, but I am not conversant with the formatting codes here, I am more conversant with vBulletin; or simply I am not skillful here at all, unlike with the system of vBulletin. The system used here is MyBB.
Next, please again try to accept my intention to be nice with atheists here, I hope you notice that I don't use language like the following:
____________
Here is my standing reply to all jesus freaks:
GO BLOW JESUS OUT YOUR ASS!
I'm beginning to regret Mariosepsis mother's conception.
Your "proof" is trash, bro. It's the same thing we see around here all the time.
"Blah blah first cause blah blah god of the gaps blah blah Pascal's wager."
Pass. Spin. Click. Repeat.
____________________
About my attempts to get us linked as to understand each other's thoughts, may I suggest that we ask each other questions which by answering them we will get to know what we are communicating to each other.
First, the thread is about my proof for the existence of God, in concept as first and foremost the creator and operator of the universe and man and everything with a beginning.
That is a thought in my mind, it has to do with a concept.
Now, perhaps you will say that I am getting what? corny or patronizing toward you?
Amway, is there something you cannot understand in this message, anything at all; let us just now not come to proof of God existing or not existing, but just what you might not understand any of the lines in this message.
Or you want to ask me questions, please do so.

If you're not familiar with the formatting here, the correct course of action would be to spend as much time as we have reading this god forsaken thread to familiarize yourself with it. It should not take longer than an hour, if that. This is common courtesy. How do you expect to have a conversation with someone if you don't know their language?
Hypothetically speaking, Mariosep;
If other universes are a reality and some being from a universe other than our own was the entity responsible for creating our universe, would you consider that being to be god?

A god in concept of course is a superior entity that people pray to for help.
But if you will, please see the Finnish Dictionary of Atheism for a good write-up on god.
Here, I will give you the link:
http://www.dlc.fi/%7Eetkirja/dictionary.htm
But and please forgive me, are you a native in an English speaking country, I am not but in my country English is used everywhere.
Tell me, you know about Santa Claus, atheists love to make fun of God; notice the capital G?
By equating God with Santa, Bertrand Russell has taught atheists to make fun of God with ridiculous analogies; and I see he started the trend, he proposed that God is like an orbiting teapot in space, and from there atheists take up with flying spaghetti monster, invisible pink unicorn, etc.
So, I have in my mind the thought of the concept of God, namely, that in concept God is first and foremost the creator and operator of the universe and man and everything with a beginning.
That is no proof for His existence, but with that concept we can proceed to the reality of existence outside our mind. to search for all instances of causation which are evidence of the existence and operation of God, in concept first and foremost the creator and operator of the universe and man and everything with a beginning.
Well, I am or should I be astonished that you do not have any idea of god at all?
