"Prove to me god doesn't exist"

[WinterHold]

In other words: it's as old as the origin of the concept of monotonicity itself.
 I don't think 300 years would be enough for the idea of God to be buried.

I met a traveller from an antique land
Who said: “Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert . . . Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed:
And on the pedestal these words appear:
‘My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!'
Nothing beside remains.

- excerpt, Ozymandias

Only the weak would use stone
To claim immortality, through a fragile clone
God is represented well through the signs,
That appear in the void, painting it with cheers
Cheers so colorful, ancient signs alive for years,
Pointing to his majesty, sovereign with no peers.
But human ego,still, claim immortality through stone,
Forgetting that stone will be eaten, when the wind is blown,
Forgetting that humans, are nothing but flesh and bone.

So am I. We call it "human lifespan".
