Nobelives, I think I know what you are trying to say!

Leo, I don't think it's true to say that theists or deists have no proof for their assumptions or belief in a 'god'. The proofs or evidence we present are not accepted by atheists. This doesn't mean they are not evidence of an intelligence outside of what we know.
