Atheism is lucky to have zero burden of proof.
They don't have to be persuasive at ALL.
...I say let them stay that way.
Welcome to AF.
Cheers!

Because we aren't making any claims about the existence or nonexistence of gods; we're just stating that we haven't been convinced by the evidence put forward by the followers of those religions. Lion up there prattles on about how atheists aren't convincing, but the failure is his and that of those like him, both in terms of evidentiary support and even understanding the atheist position: how much of an argument do we really need, for the position of "I don't believe you."?

Oh, and welcome aboard, by the way.

You must first define god before I can decide what sort of evidence that requires.

Ok. At the very basest level God would be uncreated, alone from everlasting, and brought nature into existence.

Depends on the god you have in mind. Are you following a particular religion, here?

Hell, does this god interact with the world in any way?
