How do you prove that something does not exist? You have no proof of your own. Where is it? You guys have reasoned that because some scriptures do not add up, and this world may seem not to prove to you that God is real, You infer that He can't exist. You have to have proof of your own too! Who ever heard of a one sided argument? If you look honestly at any debate, both sides have to prove their points. How selfish of some of you to throw the burden of proof exclusively on me.
How about this for a quick proof;
All you have done is create certain pahtways in your brain that has given you the experience of talking with god. It has been proven that we all have these places in out brain, and it is nothing more than a social binding adaptation. Different people react in different ways depending on their upbringing, generally.

If you take the above examples as a whole, they partially explian the god dillemma & the associated phenomenon.
I can say this is a very brief example, and much more information can be included to get the entire picture, including many of the sciences, but I beleive it can all be explained using the different branches of science.
