Just existing and finding all the arguments for god laughably childish.

Is that you want arguments that are laughably childish, because it makes you feel more like an adult, a fully developed human being, if you can imagine everyone else as a child.No its because all I have seen is childish arguments for gods.

All it takes to be an atheist is not be convinced by the idea of a god and to date no one has even given a good description of what a god could be and I have asked often.

My argument is mainly that I'm not convinced.
There are a number of reasons that I'm not convinced that has grown more supported by evidence as I've learnt more about theists arguments, but from the start I am just agog that people can believe what is obvious nonsense.

Well present something to argue against.
So you could tell me:
What god is made of?
How god does his godding?
Where did it exist before the universe/time existed?
I want all your answers to those extremely basic requests and I would expect evidence to support any answer.
"arguments" are nothing that I take notice of. Alone they are nothing.
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
