Well, that's not exactly how I have heard it when I was brought up being a catholic. It's also contradicting the bible. Isaiah 45:5: I am the LORD, and there is no other; apart from me there is no God. I will strengthen you, though you have not acknowledged me,
Also Allah is supposed to be the same guy as the christian god. He even sent his buddy Gabriel to Mohammed. Even Jesus plays a prominent role in that book, though not as a god: http://carm.org/what-does-islam-and-qura...bout-jesus
As for your original question, I don't think you'll find that many what you call "Hard atheists", since atheism in my book is simply not believing in the existence of any deity.
I have exactly the same evidence for the existence of Zeus, Odin, Saturn and what christians like to call god. In short, none, outside of campfire tales and written legends. I wouldn't claim to have proof of the absence of god or gods. You can't disprove what isn't there for you to see. You also can't disprove pixies and fairies.
