It's impossible to offer conclusive proof for the nonexistence of something. For example, a colony of unicorns could live in a galaxy far, far away and we would have no way of knowing. Duh.
Not that it matters, as you can't offer conclusive proof of his existence can you? The point is, if you claim god exists, you have to prove it. If you don't believe other people's assertions that god exists, you have nothing to prove.

As far as I can tell, that is true of all things. This is a symbiotic -- if you'll pardon me using the term rather loosely -- universe. So, basically, everything is less than real, based on your beliefs. I wish you could name one thing that did not rely on anything else for its very existence. I might just be drawing a blank. However, if you cannot, then this ultimate reality is just a construct of an overactive, but shortsighted imagination. Not that I have a prejudice against such things. Imagine away, Zaki.
Right! So what you're saying is that you don't even regard YOURSELF - YOUR OWN EXISTENCE - as quite real, eh? Very interesting. Well, in that case, what is the reason to regard anything you think or say as real? Hahahahahahahahahaha! These atheist "philosophers"! Hahahahahahahahahahaha!
By the way, how do you suppose all that imagining and constructing can be done without real free will?
With regard to your symbiosis example: What is the symbiotic relationship that exists between bricks and brick walls? Hahahahahahahahahahah! You weren't paying attention, were you?

Um, that is not what I said at all. I was actually only speaking about your beliefs. I said nothing of my own. Furthermore, what I said contradicted what you said, as I asserted that all things are dependent on something else. You asserted that some things are less real because they have to depend on something else. Therefore, your "right" is reading like an attempt to make it sound like I agree with your asinine claims when it is quite clear that I do not. Do try to keep up.

I think he's absolutely correct. The existence of invisible sky-daddy's for instance is totally dependent on the existence of the gullibility of believers.

Right! And they also brought themselves into being with their gullibility, didn't they? Hahahahahahahahahahaha!

Well the issue was about Reality - not mere beliefs. Do pay attention!

Yes, and your beliefs about reality are hokey, at best. Would you care to address the fact that your previous response to me is one big misleading attempt to make it sound like I said something I do not or is inferring things that are not implied something you are in denial about?

You did say that NOTHING in the Universe - including YOURSELF therefore is - "quite real", did you not? Hahahahahahahahahahaha!

Do not deliberately misquote me to suit your needs.

The above is the original quote, though I just put the relevant information in italics.
If you want to actually discuss what I said in reply to your own statements about a topic you introduced, I am more than happy to continue. However, if you are going to continue to trail off topic and digitally laugh hysterically every time you blatantly misconstrue something I say, I will ignore you, at best. We already have one member who does that like it is his job. Two is more than I can be bothered with.

Why do you need others to help you decide on such a serious matter? And anyway, the fact that something has not been proven to your satisfaction does not mean it is not true, does it? The American continent, for instance, existed long before it was known about in Europe. To have asserted that it didn't exist because there was no evidence about it a millennium ago would have been absurd, would it not?
If you're going to deny the existence of everything until it is proven to your satisfaction and a majority of scientists you approve of are also convinced, would you not simply be a hindrance to scientific discovery? Shouldn't your task be to go out and find evidence yourself - conclusive evidence - and not wait for others to do that job for you - making life as difficult for them as possible in the meantime.
Take it out of context why don't you. Scientifically unprovable things like god/religion require the proof of the person who makes the claim. RUSSELLS TEAPOT, so I dont have to waste my time chasing the lies of others.

When did you prove your claim that they are "scientifically unprovable"? Just asserting something doesn't make it so you know.
