I say that all the time. Watch. I'm certain that god doesn't exist.
You say alot of things that are just flat out wrong, I'd post quotes but apparently it's considered spam/trolling/out of contex, never knew atheists were so sensitive...
Name call all you want but don't dare quote someone words back at them, because THAT's trolling

I don't care, not a day goes by where I wonder if Santa exists, there isn't one discussion forum I belong to identifying with my non-belief in Santa. So were really not talking about anything remotely similar are we?
We were not actually talking about Santa, but about argument you brought up and that is that we can't dismiss god because god can't be disproved and then I used Santa as an example. I could have used Tooth-fairy or garden gnomes. Santa is not the issue but the fact that we can dismiss stuff that can't be proven not to exist as you diss Santa although you probably believed in him in your childhood.
I would not dream of asking you to prove, in either of the foregoing senses, that Santa doesn’t exist. Nevertheless you don’t believe in Santa and you think your non-belief is justified. The existence of Santa, you might say, is not impossible, but it is wildly improbable. The same is with atheists and god when the argument of "god can't be disproved not to exist" - do you get it now?
Now you are saying that you want to believe in god because you want to live forever and wishing something is not an argument that it exists. Also then you don't know which god to bow because other gods, if it turns out they're real will punish you.
The thing you guys constantly refuse to consider is that we are talking about much higher dimensions, which DO exist. Imagine if you were a 2 dimensional being, how would you go about proving a 3 dimensional being to your 2d friends?
