I don't have proof that one exists ....
... of course not forgetting that advanced civilization to us would likely look like gods too. It might sound strange to some but we along with our whole universe might be an experiment in some advanced alien lab. If in doubt google M-Theory....
I have no choice. I must believe, or else my rescue was a lie (or self-delusion). I'm one of those that God DID speak to audibly, and DID pull me out of a miserable, abusive existence.
Weiners on buns, no condiments.
Because that's the way Hank wants it, and that's good enough for me!
I'll get my million bucks when >>I<< leave town!
Then who will be laughing?
There is a common saying "absence of evidence is not evidence of absence", and I wonder if that runs through people's minds when they talk about the lack of evidence for god?
Standing on it's own, it's a pretty fricking silly saying. If you exist, you leave evidence you exist. It really is that simple. Carl Sagan used the term to label "an argument from ignorance". ie., "well, I don't have any evidence He.she.it doesn't exist, so I am firmly convince HeSheIt does exist".
You can't prove a negative, but you can sure build a mountain of shallow god-talk out of a molehill of mystery. And if your god-talk's got game, you can even get other people to think your idiocy is wisdom, maybe even pay to hear you blather or read your book or kiss your pinky. Foolish things of the world indeed. I don't think I need to list examples.

Quote from George Carlin
Are you sure it was GC? He's pretty anti-god as far as I've heard. I loooked on his "quotes" page and didn't see it. Are you sure that's not some corn-ball bumper sticker purchased from "Better Get Right or You'll Get Left" store in some stripmall, between a GNC and WanFu Nails and Gyros?
To answer your question, no. ...but I do believe in Sponge Bob Square Pants as my supreme being. Does he count as a deity if I want him to?
I don't believe in god. But even if he existed, why would we worship him?
I'm sure there's something bigger out there than us that caused what we have here to be here, but why would that mean that whoever caused what we have to be here expects to be worshipped?
For example: We as humans are bigger and smarter than most life on this planet. To some forms of life, their whole universe exists in my backyard. So does that mean I should be worshipped? Does it make me a god?
Here is my God. Now get to obeying and such
"You believe in god or not?"
Not.
"Why?"
Because.
OK?
Six: But, but, but... ...you said you had "evidence" that Hank's Weiner wasn't made of normal Weiner stuff! Now I'm really confused, but at least I now understand why there's no right way to chop a Weiner!!
Yes.
Sex is so pleasurable that only a supreme being could have done that.
Sex as evidence for god? Hmmm, guess I need to get on my knees and worship!
lol can you feel the spirtual bessings sister! I think I was just saved.
