First off, it's up to them to prove their sky-daddy is real...not us to prove he isn't.

Many people have the ignorant assumption that the Xtian God is a physical entity to be proven or not. Of course a person is right to say that theirs is not the task to prove non existence of anything. But equally, if no claim is made of physical existence then likewise that person has nothing to prove either. You must then, address belief... either try to reason against it, or reason abstinence from it. Everyone has reasons either way, and that's what you're demonstrating.

Welcome to the forums
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post
