Even in court, one does not attempt to prove that someone is innocent so much as one attempts to prove that one is guilty.

Innocent until proven guilty, after all.

The same logic works for god. He does not exist until he can be proven to exist. Thousands of years of human civilization, and still there is no proof of god's existence.
