Obviously that is not so. Just check the numerous posts from theists here on this site. Their ultimate response to pure logic or scientific evidence is "goddidit". There is no reasoning with most theists and when all else fails, (as it always does) even the most reasonable ones still fall back to "goddidit".
The bible says god exists and wrote the bible. That is the extent of a theist's 'proof'.
You make people miserable and there's nothing they can do about it, just like god.
