? God existence?:(, :)

The only valid proof of Gods existence is FAITH
The only valid proof of God's non-existence is FAITH
There are no hypotheses' that can lead to a theory that can be used to design experiments that would prove or disprove the existence of God. In this day and day and age we insist that empirical, repeatable evidence prove a theory.
Anecdotal evidence is not proof. The bible, Koran or any other missive do not nor can not prove anything about a God.

Except inasmuch that it's not necessary to prove a god's nonexistence, even if that were possible.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

Pretty hard to prove a negative (as well as being unnecessary)

Through passion, I gain strength.
Through strength, I gain power.
Through power, I gain victory.
Through victory, my chains are broken."

Well, if the negative concerns things that by nature are impossibly self-contradictory, say married bachelors or police intelligence, then they disprove themselves. But as you say, the exercise is an unnecessary shifting of the burden of proof.

Hi ,
I'm agree partially . But I want to make some additions .
Yes , the only valid proof of Gods existence is FAITH , the only valid proof of God's non-existence is FAITH .
But there are more than faith for the God's existence >>> the some informations contained in holy books which could not be known by human .
If we consider the shortest path , according to the materialistic thoughts there is an end of each substance and it is not sufficient to explain the existences .
So the existence of God is leading 1-0 as score .

Hmm, do I attempt to engage this person in intellectual debate knowing that it is the equivalent of playing chess with a pidgeon?
Or do I go straight to mockery?
Hmmmmm.
