If I showed you the actual God... that would be observational proof.
here I will show you
open your eyes
look all around
there you have it!
If God, then the universe.
The universe, therefore God.
This is the fallacy of affirming the consequent.
Here is the same 'logic' used to prove something different.
If I am Elijah Wood, I am 5'6" tall.
I am 5'6" tall. Therefore I am Elijah Wood.
The problem with my use of this form of argument is that although it's remotely possible that am actually Elijah Wood, there are many other possible explanations for me being 5'6". Same with your argument of 'look all around' and God.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
