Because He has given much, as God said, one who looks around himself and doesn't see a creator will be without excuse, that's a bit more than slight.

I'm not sure why you keep asking me the same type of question, by now you ought to know you're going to get the same type answer.
Answer: Through the whole of the scriptures, this is the answer to both questions.

Whenever religion enters the realm of reality, something that can be tested, god immediately withdraws from the spotlight.
You want to test God and He says He want be tested. You and most the other atheist here want absolute proof of God and you believe it only fair He prove His existence to you as you want. I say how fair are you being with the ones who come to Christ through faith, which is what God asked us to do.
God is described as the unseen God not the hiding God, it is what He desires. God has never withdrew from anything and want be tested and this place is temporary, it is the new creation that will be eternally real.

You couldn't embarrass God, don't make yourself look so big.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
