1.) You can't prove a negative.
2.) The onus is on the religious to prove their invisible sky-daddy exists. We are not the idiots making extraordinary claims.

You forgot option 4, sadly deluded. Some schizophrenics have deep, ongoing personal relationships with cartoon characters, that doesn't make them *real*.
God "tells" crazy people to kill other people all the time. How are their claims any less valid than yours?

That's your opinion & in my opinion (& every other rational, intelligent person on this forum) it's not worth the electrons used to display it.
