Why do atheists claim that the concept of God is so unlikely

I'd expect to see some sort of blip of evidence somewhere, to account for all this. Yet I see nothing. I see confirmation bias fucking people up the arse, and them taking it like a bitch. I see highly suggestible people being conned. I see children being programmed. I see group hysteria.

And I see all of this behavior for every religion, while I know that most of them (if not all) are false religions.

I was just thinking along similar lines just a few minutes ago.  Specifically I was thinking of "giving thanks" or saying grace before a meal.  I have to work for a living, buy food, prepare it, set it out and then give thanks for it because, somehow down the line, all the mundane shit that got it there is irrelevant because magic was the ultimate cause of the food being there.  There's no question.  God get the credit.  I bought it?  He made sure I got the job.  I prepared it?  He made sure I was healthy enough to do so.  Hell, I wouldn't even mind saying grace before eating if he'd just magic the fucking dishes done once in a while or something.  But I suppose he does enough, what with the fact that unemployment would always be at 100% if God weren't there pushing all those little electrons around to make your computer work to get the online job postings.
Have you ever noticed all the drug commercials on TV lately?  Why is it the side effects never include penile enlargement or super powers?
Side effects may include super powers or enlarged penis which may become permanent with continued use.  Stop taking Killatol immediately and consult your doctor if you experience penis enlargement of more than 3 inches, laser vision, superhuman strength, invulnerability, the ability to explode heads with your mind or time travel.  Killatoll is not for everyone, especially those who already have convertibles or vehicles of ridiculous size to supplement penis size.
