You're all going to hell. How can you not believe in god? Have you ever REALLY looked at a tree? Like WOW. If that's not god I don't know what is.
But in all seriousness we can never disprove the alleged existence god, in the same way that we can never technically disprove the alleged existence of unicorns. However I think the OP understands this and the point is more so to trying to get people to offer up their own arguments against theists and possibly deists???
We can all easily make a theist look silly in the course of a debate, but much harder to make arguments against is the deist, who believe in a sort of 'first-cause' impersonal god. I neither believe in this type of god nor the theist description of god, but I just haven't really thought of or heard any rock solid arguments against a 'first-cause' god. In my mind that type of god doesn't really make sense either, but I am not sure how to really express why it doesn't make sense to me....

“Love is the only bow on Life’s dark cloud. It is the morning and the evening star. It shines upon the babe, and sheds its radiance on the quiet tomb. It is the mother of art, inspirer of poet, patriot and philosopher.
It is the air and light of every heart – builder of every home, kindler of every fire on every hearth. It was the first to dream of immortality. It fills the world with melody – for music is the voice of love.
Love is the magician, the enchanter, that changes worthless things to Joy, and makes royal kings and queens of common clay. It is the perfume of that wondrous flower, the heart, and without that sacred passion, that divine swoon, we are less than beasts; but with it, earth is heaven, and we are gods.” - Robert. G. Ingersoll
