Can one prove god exists? or doesn't?

[Wilhelm Zenz]

MANILA, Philippines (AP) — The Philippine president, who recently sparked outrage for calling God stupid, has courted new controversy in his largely Roman Catholic country by saying he will resign if anybody can prove that God exists.

No.

 

[Grugore]

Nothing physical can create itself. The universe is physical. That means it was created. That means God exists. Simple logic.

 

[Jack]

Who invented God?

Grugore: Oh, He ALWAYS existed.
Agnostic: Maybe the Universe 'always' existed'?
Grugore: That's different.
Agnostic: Yeah, sure. In YOUR brain.

There is no way to prove any gods exist...and no way to prove than no gods exist.

All anyone can do is to make a blind guess either way.

Thanks, Frank. This seems fairly obvious to most people. (I guess there will always be people that believe in the Occult amongst us?)

No and no, that is why it is called faith, and the Philippine is whacky, and not very politically astute

Cannot prove a negative

The onus is on that one who claims there is something

All right. Show me something that created itself.

A negative can be proven.

But one cannot prove a negative so universal as "There are no gods."

Give this one a shot, though.

Make the assertion, "There are no live African Elephants living in my basement right now."

See if that cannot be proven.
