The first problem is that "God" is usually not defined by the individual. The second is the presupposition that everything in existence is not already proof of divinity. I use the word divinity for communication purposes only. To use it in the ordinary sense implies that something exists outside of the natural order (nature) which is impossible. The former problem is self explanatory in that those who make the claim often refer to abrahamic type deities but fail to address a pantheistic/panentheistic concept of "God." The latter is problematic because the skeptic uses his preconceived view of the workings of world to define the nature of reality. Therefore it is possible that the proof of God may be in every tenet of existence itsself if one had a clearer perception. It is imperitave that we do not put the concept of divinity in any sort of box when attempting to understand reality. To do this eliminates any possibilty of experiencing truth which may indeed require an entirly different understanding to perceive. I am not trying to defend or attack either the theist or atheist position but just speaking of the approach in which we should seek. I hope you all have something to add to this .
(This post is not to address those threads that are only speaking of abrahamic type deities but in some of them I see someone asking for proof without defining what they mean by "God.")
