Well, given there are 7.1 billion people, and let's take the top five religions..
4.3billion don't believe in christianity.
5.6billion don't believe in islam.
6.2billion don't believe in hinduism.
6.8billion don't believe in buddhism.
7.0billion don't believe in sikhism.
That's almost 30 billion people that don't believe in the top 5 recognised gods... If that does not prove there's no real god, nothing will !
Then I guess nothing will. The amount of people who believe or don't believe in something has no bearing on whether that thing is true. At any given moment, around 2 billion children believe in Santa Claus. This doesn't make Santa Claus real. Similarly, if everyone on earth stopped believing in Madagascar tomorrow, it wouldn't make Madagascar go away.
