I declare that I see no credible evidence for the existence of a deity, and you declare that lack of evidence is not a logical reasonable reason?
I don't believe in werewolves either. I would bet that you would agree that lack of evidence for their existence is a logical reason to not believe in their existence.
Evidence is measurable, testable, and verifiable. This excludes old fairy tales and personal feelings.
All you have proved in this thread so far is that you have no understanding of logic, reason, and evidence.
Ybe response:
Please give the measurement, tests, and verification that have proved your statement evidence is measurable, testable, and verifiable.

Scientific evidence: (quote from Wikipedia no less I only have 5 minutes)
“Empirical evidence and interpretation in accordance with scientific method. Standards for scientific evidence vary according to the field of inquiry, but the strength of scientific evidence is generally based on the results of statistical analysis and the strength of scientific controls.” Empirical evidence is information acquired by observation and experimentation, submitted to various forms of analysis. One of the primary tenets of validation and verification of evidence is reproduce-ability. This means that researchers all over the world are able to take the same measurements and run the same tests – and get the same results.
My logical reason for being an Atheist is that no evidence exists that even points to the existence of a deity. When confirmed and verified proof is presented, I will change my mind.
