The burden of proof is with you. If you can provide ANY, I'll be thrilled to pieces and will immediately become a believer.

About contradictions: Just two examples which go together:The problems of evil and suffering.Neither are compatible with the Abrahamic god and the qualities with which he is ascribed.

There's a quote from Seneca I think,but I can't think of it off hand. To the effect that if god exists,he cannot possess those qualities. That certainly seems to be the case with the petty mountain God El,who became YHWH,Lord of the Universe. The Torah portrays him as petulant, jealous, petty,vindictive, cruel and unjust.
