Ok, I’m saying God created the world. My evidence is the universe.
You can deny my proof. Fair enough. But unless you have some other theory, where does that leave you. Having a club of people who all agree that no one has proved God exists? It would make sense if your mission is to prove or disprove it yourselves.
God bless you

If I claimed the origin of the universe was a quantum fluctuation, I've got no business expecting anyone to believe me unless I proved it. I could write a successful book on the subject and still not have proved it. There are many hypotheses for the origin and existence of the universe that have math that works and don't contradict the laws of physics; but as yet we have no means of testing them. It's premature to bet on one cosmological horse before the evidence to support one over another is available.
But you have made the choice to proclaim that you know the answer, and accuse us of cowardice for pointing out that doing so places the burden of proof on you when that's just how burder of proof works.
Our common mission is to discuss things, using logic and evidence where applicable. When you offer logical non sequiturs instead of sound arguments; we're doing you a favor when we educate you on that. It's an opportunity for you to learn how to present sound arguments instead of fallacious ones. An opportunity you choose to waste.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
