I've heard you cannot because you can use a supernatural being as the the explanation for anything if you think it is all powerful. I've also heard certain things like an amputee growing a limb back after someone prays for them in the moment would be good evidence. Where do you forumers stand on this?
Two books I recommend EVERYONE READ.
1. God The Failed Hypothesis by Victor Stenger
2. The New Atheism also by Victor Stenger
FYI folks, the second title "The New Atheism" is a swipe at that stupid notion, because our species has had a long history of skepticism and there is nothing new about it.
