That's a positive claim,and attracts the burden of proof. Let's see your proof.
I assert I do not believe due to lack of credible evidence. As unlikely as I think it may be, the Abrahamic God may be real. Like Dawkins, I'm about a 6.9/7 sure he is not,but not certain because I cannot prove god does not exist.
Absence of evidence is not proof of the nonexistence of a god of any kind.However, I think it's a fairly strong indicator for the nonexistence of the Abrahamic God with his ascribed [and mutually exclusive] infinite qualities.
A beginning is necessary which makes god caused. This god had to have a first action or first thought. What caused this first action or first thought?
You make people miserable and there's nothing they can do about it, just like god.
