The "you can't prove god doesn't exist" argument is meaningless shit. I don't need to prove a non existent thing does not exist, it's overall and constant nothingness gives the game away.
You can't prove that I'm not a talking whicker basket (but only when nobody is looking!) - however it would be ridiculous to assert even the tiny possibility that I could be. Hello god, you belong in the same bracket.
As always we can only look at what we have evidence to support. There is no evidence to support gods existence anywhere, this despite 6 billion believers, and that is that. There is more evidence for life on mars and 6 billion people haven't been looking for it, instead we're talking a handful of people.
I think if god was real, his effect would be demonstable in some way or another, and we'd have found evidence. I have to laugh at the people that say he's outside of the universe, time, whatever, so he's not something we can find. Oh so you mean he's effectively not real then? Has zero effect on us then?
Absence of evidence often IS evidence of absence, it often IS the most plausible explanation.
Realistically, no evidence against the existence of god will be enough for a theist, we aren't battling facts but emotion, and a need or want to believe. If they want to believe, they will.

You are currently experiencing a lucky and very brief window of awareness, sandwiched in between two periods of timeless and utter nothingness. So why not make the most of it, and stop wasting your life away trying to convince other people that there is something else? The reality is obvious.
