"I'll await your link proving without a doubt that god doesn't exist"

I cannot prove that the spaghetti monster doesn't exist. I cannot prove unicorns don't exist.

But if you posit anything with a story that goes much beyond invisibility, I can prove it does not exist. It is very easy to prove most of the imagined gods do not exist, because they have a story and the story will be like a brick of Swiss cheese. (You do understand that the earth is not 6000 years old--right??)

However, if you keep your story short such as "God exists and he lives on Jupiter and he is invisible and the size of a bumble bee", then you will have yourself an unassailable hit.

And even more important than the existence of some imagined thing...it can be easily proved that Nature (and whatever you can imagine to be behind Nature) is impervious and aloof. You can pray till your eyes pop out but don't bother once you have jumped off the bridge.

And if you don't want some crazy boy to gun you down, get security cameras. You don't want to get flooded--live inland. You don't want to get kicked by a mule--pay a prostitute.

You invent something in your mind and then you invent a definition for the invention in your mind and then you want me to prove it does not exist? HUH! When did you drop out of school? If you want to sell me a car--fine. Give me the keys and I will take it for a drive.
