Really, have you looked at all the alleged proofs that exist in order to then state that there is no proof for God's existence?
Can you recognize sarcasm if it bites you on the nose?

Like the realization that you might not know us better than we know ourselves, or that it's possible that your 'proof' contains flaws...it's almost like you think you're perfect and incapable of error...but you SAY only God is full of wisdom, and it's mouthing the right words that's important, right?Quit with the humility problem talk, I am trying to save your soul remember?
Can you walk me through how being arrogant and condescending will help you accomplish that?
Now I feel free to be a little harsh with you. If I had my way and was the king of atheism, you wouldn't be allowed to become an atheist until I was satisfied you would do a better job of representing us than you do of representing Christians. Starting with the bizarre font use. So I've no particular reason to consider what effect my approach could have on your attitude or chances of giving up Christianity. To the slight degree that I think Christianity is something people should avoid believing, you're doing a better job of showing people the flaws of that belief system than you likely could as an atheist, so I'm kind of hoping you won't deconvert from theism.
However, if I really wanted to persuade you, I would listen to you, consider what you have to say, try to understand what your position really is and how you came to hold it; and use your feedback to improve my approach, grateful for any flaws you've pointed out in my reasoning, because knowing them can only make my arguments stronger if I'm in the right. And without even caring a whit about persuading you personally, I've still managed to do a better job of all that with you than you have with any of us.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
