Tell me what you have seen to convince you god DOES exist. You shouldn't believe in something because it can't be disproven. I can't disprove pink invisible unicorns.
In the end, proof is of God and the spirit realm, and anything other than the material world is in the eye of the beholder with eyes that can see. Perception of reality is a sum of ones experiences, and information gathered whether accurate or not. Personal experiences in my life, and information I've researched proved to me I don't know it all, and there is a lot more to learn. For me it's more interesting to learn everything I can, rather than limit what I research based on my beliefs. Why do you think I'm here as someone that believes in God interacting with atheists. I'm curious to understand your belief system is. I would say you need to get out of your comfort zone and have your beliefs challenged, whether it's researching something you don't believe in, or interacting with non atheists.
Back when I was about 18 my cousins were in town, and I had bought a quigi board to try out. My one cousin didn't like the idea, but convinced him to do it anyway. As you could imagine it started moving, and we all accused eachother of moving it. To be fair I even moved it to scare my cousins. After a while we kept asking questions, never knowing who was moving it or if it was moving itself. Suddenly the lights flickered, and all the doors in the house slammed shut, including the door in the basement. Since our parents were out to dinner and my brothers and cousins were in the basement, we didn't know what to think. I still don't know what to think about that, but it happened, and I can't explain it. I can try to explain it in paranormal terms, but really can't explain it in the end. It was not a windy day, and the windows were shut. It scared the hell out of it, and my cousin who was against it, destroyed it.
All smoke and mirrors bullshit and unfounded assertions**. Keep trying if you think you can prove the existence of any god or "spirit realm"!
**Hint: assertions<>proof! Neither does fact-free argument, btw.
