If yoou met Bush or Obama before they were sworn in would that mean you did not meet these men just because you did not know them to be a future president? No of course not. Just because you did not know who you were speaking to nor who these people would be in the future does not mean you did not meet them, which means you still had 'proof' of the president.
Following that line of thought anyone you meet on a bus stop could be God.
The rest of the unbolded doesn't work unless God wasn't always a god.

Why are you not listing your questions on a Christian forum?

Who better to ask than a christian who is confident enough to join an atheist forum?

Why is your bible correct? Because God said so. When, where and how?
In the life of the believer when the promises found in the bible are proven to be true. And there you have it, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls:

Drich, I have a simple request.
Answer 1 and 3 without using the word ¨God¨ or ¨Bible¨.
¨I contend that we are both atheists, I just believe in one fewer god than you. When you understand why you dismiss all other possible gods, you will understand why I dismiss yours.¨

When the best proof of the President would be the President Himself. Yes, and we can all see the president, proving his existence.
Where is god that proof can be seen of it?

A classic case of Drich saying "No no NO! The point was over here, not there." When someone calls him out on his bullshit.
That's right Drich, we just can't see the "subtleties" to you argument.

Most christian forums will black ball and try to ban when a non christian starts asking questions that are uncomfortable.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
