Dear Lady and Gentleman,
It seems to me that it is far more important to absolutely satisfy ourselves that there is no God if we choose to be atheists. Those who believe in God will loose nothing if it turns out that there is no God after all at the end of this life but those who are atheists will have an eternity of darkness to worry about if there is a God. So it is once again a question in Probability. I don't believe there is a deterministic method to prove whether there is a God or not. Even the Bible says it is by faith that we know Him which implies that there is no deterministic method to prove the existence or non-existence of God. But God has left sufficient evidence of Himself for all to see in Creation and no one will have any excuse on the Day of Judgement, so says the Bible. In my opinion, Creation is an even greater witness to the wisdom, power, glory and majesty of God for even the Bible appeals to it. The heavens declare the glory of God and His invisible attributes are clearly seen in the things which He has made, says the Bible. If you are interested I think the following website may be worth looking into. I haven't actually gone through it but I roughly know what it is about. Because of our finite and limited intellectual capacities we have to resort to Probabilistic thinking. I'll read it later. Too many things to read. http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/pascal-wager/ Take care and Bye Bye:-
