If you were given 100% conclusive proof that God didn't exist how would you live your life?

An argument can be 100% conclusive, but a different thing to be 100% convinced by it.

An argument can be 100% conclusive, but a different thing to be 100% convinced by it.

If it was 100% conclusive, as in absolutely certain its accurate, then why wouldn't you be convinced? That'd be like:
RD: This is a stone.
MK: Na-uh.
RD: What? Look at it, feel it, experiment on it. Its a stone.
MK: I'm not convinced, I think its a sponge.
RD: WHAT!?
GC: I agree.
RD: Nobody asked you. -.-

... got sidetracked but you get the point.
