Prove I'm not god.

Can't do it.
Now please prove that Allah, Krishna and Thor are not God.
Prove there is no tooth fairy. Prove there is no Invisible Pink Unicorn.
Good work--you've elevated your God to the status of a mythical being. Congratulations.

I never say "prove." I always say, "evidence." The evidence seems to indicate there is no God. In general, when something exists, there is evidence of that fact.
it is impossible to disprove the existence of imaginary beings. God is an imaginary being. Therefore it's impossible to disprove His existence.
So you're an agnostic then?

I know the feeling. When I tell people that I'm god, they tell me to prove it - I say disprove it. You have the same footing whether you believe that Jesus is god, that Allah is god, or that I'm god.

First define what God is....
then you can go through the puerile motions of being disproved
Oh no you haven't. Someone who does not believe a claim, is not making a claim, they are simply rejecting a claim. It is the duty of claimant to provide evidence for their claim, and if they fail to do so, than rejection of that claim is justified. And this goes for any claim being made whether it's a god, or leprechauns, it doesn't matter.

Then your conclusion doesn't match your premises.
Your argument rests on the fact that neither atheists nor Christians can prove that God exists or doesn't exist.
While a Christian cannot prove that God exists, she still believes.
An atheist who cannot prove that God exists simply doen't believe.

:biglaugh: thats why i believe in faeries, unicorns, goblins, zombies & compassionate conservatives! because no one has yet to prove they dont exist
Actually I think it works fine, God cant be disproved, yet some will bash what is not there in their eye's. Seems to lend more credence to the God fella.
Some gods can be disproved. That's why Senor Queso's question is rather important:
However, I think more relevant than the question of proof or disproof is the question of whether it's reasonable for one to believe in God. I can't speak to your experience, but for me, I'd say it isn't.

You forgot Big Foot, the Loch Ness Monster, Sasquatch, that blondes ARE more fun opposed to HAVE more fun....
There are a number of things that can't be disproved, like leprechauns. But just because something can't be disproved doesn't mean that thats "proof" of it's existence. Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. You have to show evidence before claims should be considered as believable.
Billions of people believe in the God of Abraham! How is that for evidence? Billoins of people believe something, science is still rolling along and yet we believe. Billions of individual testimonies is more than science has books.
