There is no evidence for the existence of god.
There is a great deal of evidence that every god of every religious belief system is man made.
Ergo, Atheism.

& how odd that people should be the author of a human form of communication. I'm with you there 100%.

Specifically creator gods that dropped us into a garden exactly as we are now, along with everything else exactly as it is now, at some undetermined time in the past. In reverse, had we happened upon a verifiable ancient text that presented us with a picture of the archaeological record before we'd ever dug the first hole, signed by god, so to speak, that would've been a hell of an argument for god, wouldn't it?Ah right so for it to be "God" doing it we'd need some "God was 'ere" graffiti. Next we'd need some contradictory theology stating physical proof was in fact possible after all. Best get rid of the bible then. And lastly, we'd have to demote God to innocent bystander and get him to take his hands off the controls. You know I think we cracked it!
