I am a theist, what do you think of my proof for God existing?

No, it doesn't work like that. I don't claim to "prove" the nonexistence of any god. The burden of evidence lays upon the claimant. My only claim is that for every god I've ever heard described, I find the evidence insufficient.

I do not have to disprove your version of god. All I need to do is hear your evidence and see if it is convincing or not.

  • God in concept is first and foremost the creator and operator of the universe and man and everything with a beginning.
 

That's a pretty nebulous definition for a Protestant ... it looks more like a wedge waiting for a tap-tap here, a tap-tap there than it does an actual definition of the god you worship according to your own profile.

I've got better things to do than go through the litany of gods I don't believe in to please some guy online. Why don't you ask yourself why you don't believe in the other thousands of gods, and apply that reasoning to your own? You're an atheist too, for all those thousands of other gods. The only difference between you and I is that you've fenced off your own god and won't apply the same logic inside that particular pasture.
