Got proof?

The proof is in the fact that you "think" he is there and defend him without any proof of his existence beside your own convictions.

I have reasons why I believe in God, but I have pretty much given up trying to explain them here since it seems many people here ether don't want to believe or ask for irrationally high levels of proof and then restrict that proof only to repeatable scientific evidence. That may work for cold hard laws, but not for a personal immateral God.

And thus, to close the circle for the umpteenth time, is why we reject your silly visions of a 'god.'
Do you get it now?
I do understand now, and that is why I say it is irrational to close your mind so much to other ways of knowing things.

By the way, when Minimalist says "we" he of course cannot actually be speaking for all 'us atheists'.
I for one disagree with him for instance.
I'd accept any valid evidence. And I do not see how scientific evidence suffices anyway because it seems to me that deities are unfalsfiable, and unless something can be falsified it cannot be science.
