God cannot be proven to not exist as he is defined. (An omnipotent being could hide forever if he really wanted to). Why is it just opinion (and a poor one) to think that one should apply critical thinking to claims about things that go beyond what is scientifically demonstrable?
The question is vague at best and why do you not use spiritual reasoning with science? OK.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
