"Before we address the question whether it can be disproven and whether anyone actually claims that it is"
Don't atheist claim that God does not exist?
If they do claim this, is their belief absolute or is there a degree of uncertainty?
Would a mix of 99.99999% certainty and 0.00001% uncertainty make an authentic atheist, or does an atheist need to believe with 100% certainty that there is no God?
If there is a threshold of uncertainty allowed for atheists, could you assign it a number? I would assume any amount of uncertainty move the person into the category of agnostic.
The only way to assert with absolute certainty that there is no God is to formally disprove God. Atheists have yet to do this, not to my knowledge anyways.
"can you properly define what "God" is"
For the purposes of this discussion, I will define God as: "The creator of the universe, a spiritual being that is omnipresent, omnipotent, and omniscient. The source of absolute morality and absolute truth."
