An Atheist may say "God" is the claim not the evidence. When they say this, this in itself is True. The answer isn't, It is a claim so its false. It is rather, Is there an alternative other than the claim "God" and if so is it more better, is it reasonable, in other words what else could you claim it on if not God? The burden of proof is on the Theist to prove God is false, it is not 100 percent up to the theist to provide the proof, the unbeliever most be willing to find the evidence.
Then consider this. What evidence would it take for you to believe that I am God?
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.'

It is false. God is a non-concept like a square circle.
God can't create reality. Anything at all being "outside of reality" to create it, makes no sense whatsoever. There are super things, and there are natural things, but there aren't supernatural things. Not part of nature=not part of reality. Nothing happened or existed 'before time' or 'outside of space'. Before-ness is itself a temporal concept and outside-ness is itself a spacial concept. Nothing can be before anything else without time and nothing can be outside of anything else without space. God Himself is a complete non-concept.
If I were to be convinced of the existence of god it would be multiple gods. A universe created by a committee or warring super beings makes more sense to me. The Greeks and the Norse realized this.
God thinks it's fun to confuse primates. Larsen's God!
A Deity would have to show up, in person, in tangible form, and submit itself to rigorous scientific testing.
Greater - than - human abilities and knowledge would have to be clearly documented and confirmed. Even then, whether this entity was worth slavish worship and obedience would be in question.

Which God?
Why should we believe your God is the answer to all of these questions? Your god has made false claims. Your god said that the Earth is older than the sun, yet we see that the sun is far older. How can we trust a God claim that doesn't even get that right? A god who doesn't know what germs are--or at the very least, isn't willing to tell anyone about them. You don't just want us to believe in a god. You want us to believe in your god. If A god exists--it could be any god. And more likely it'd be a god that doesn't have a religion. If such a god cared enough about a religion, it would have come to Earth and told us itself. It wouldn't be the Christian God by any means. It's clear that the Christian God is either: A. Non-existent or B. A Fraud.
