Quote:The endless battles where the keyword is "proof".
I prefer to concentrate on the lack of evidence for any of the gods which the theists announce they believe in.
It is not up to me to provide evidence that their god does not exist. It is up to them to show that he does.
I will accept your word about your English...although it seems pretty good to me. But some of the finer points may need a little work. Start here to understand the usage of the word "proof" versus "evidence."

I surely agree with your assessment of the use of religion. To quote Thomas Jefferson:
Quote:In every country and in every age, the priest has been hostile to liberty. He is always in alliance with the despot, abetting his abuses in return for protection to his own.
