Certainty is the death of thought.
You can't prove non-existence of anything. You can always find or make up ways in which existence of any particular thing (like god, yeti, or pink unicorns) can be possible, even if no one's ever perceived it, demonstrated it, or even thought of it.
Go on - try it. Prove that one thing - anything you want - DOESN'T exist. I'll wait...
