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

Dear Simon, I am telling you about the distinction between thinking in our mind and going forward into the reality of existence outside our mind: to search for instances of things thought about in our mind.
For example, I give the concept in my mind of God as [in concept] first and foremost the creator and operator of the universe and man and everything with a beginning.
As you read my concept of God, you have already the information of what is God like, from my part; so we can already proceed to look up in the objective reality of existence outside our mind, to search for all instances of causation, because in every instance of causation there is the cause and the effect, and that is evidence for the existence of the entity corresponding to the concept in my mind of God, in concept as first and foremost the creator and operator of the universe and man and everything with a beginning.

In excerpt from #704 Simon Moon Wrote:I can't speak for all atheists, but my atheism is a provisional position, not a dogmatic one. As soon as the case for the existence of a god, or gods, meets its burden of proof, I will no longer be an atheist.
But your flawed 'proof' does not even get close.
