Or do I go straight to mockery?

Hmmmmm.

Do it!

Make up your mind.
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.'

You are correct. The existence of God is not subject to empirical verification.

And therefore can be dismissed as a valid premise.

Please don't use so many smileys in one post, or else people will start thinking that this is Rapture Ready forums or something.
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.

For example ;

30:3 At the lowest point on the earth. But after their victory, they will be defeated.

Mentions The Lutte Lake (Dead Sea) . Its is the lowest point in the world and this is written in Quran .

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 .

Please explain what a "valid proof" is, and then explain how "faith" can constitute a "valid proof" of both existence and non-existence.
