Actually, I was thinking of writing something to the same effect, but decided against it. You seem quite confident that there is no chance of a God existing and anyone who thinks differently is a moron. I am of the belief that there is no way to 100% prove the existence or non existence of a God. Also it is quite clear that you know absolutly nothing about religion or the idea of god (beyond what your high-school science teacher conditioned you to believe), as you said that there is no such thing as a unique religion, now that is one phrase that I can with all confidence says is total and complete bullshit. Also it is a bunch of bunk that you say the burden of proof rests on the shoulders of us theists, it would be impossible for any of us to try to convice you of the existence of a god if you have such a close mind as to sneer at the very idea of religion(s). Also, you claim that you have presented proof that atheism is the way to go, yet I have read all your posts and see nothing. Any of the "evidence" you have posted doesn't stand up to anything.

Don't get me wrong and take me as completely closed minded, I actually would love to have it proven to me that there is no god. This would mean the end of life is simply the end of life, that there is nothing to follow and no consequence for our actions in this life. In some ways this sounds kind of nice. If it could be proved that there was no god, then all questions of theology would be easily answered. However I do not believe this is possible.

It seems one major misconception people have about god, is that science proves the impossiblilty of a god, however that has not one ounce of truth to it at all. Science can just as well prove the existence of a creator as it can disprove the existence of such a creator. Which still leaves us to ponder the age old questions, is there a god? Only a fool decides the answer is no without really thinking about it and studying it on his own (which means not just believing it because our parents, teachers, or other influentual people in our lives thought this way). In the same way I think it can be foolish to believe in god for these same reasons.
