Do you have any doubts that your creator doesnt exist? I would like to hear one proof that God doesnt exist. If you are free to make such outlandish statements, perhaps you would like to back them up.

No such thing as "nothing", quantum pairs produce basic particles,
Nuclear fusion in stars create all heavier elements,
Organic molecules occur naturally,
Then evolution does the rest.
No need for a "top-down" creator when the universe seems perfectly capable of coming to its present state from the "bottom-up".
"Burden of proof, it's bloody hard to shift it! The only 'proof' that is necesary to believe that your god doesn't exist, it the complete LACK of proof that he exists!"
Absolute drivel. The burden of proof lies on the one making the claim. If Georgia insists God exists then she has the burden of proof. If you insist He doesn't then you have the burden of proof.
Also lack of evidence is not evidence of lack.
If you're going to argue with the fundies, at least try to do it properly.
No, we can't prove that God doesn't exist, but you can't prove he exists either. [The claim that God exists because the bible said so is absurd. We need phyiscal proof, not stories from people with overactive imaginations.]
No, you who are claiming God exists have to prove with reproducable evidence that he exists. The person who doesn't believe can sit back and not do a thing. You can't prove a negative, that's just silly.
The "outlandish statements: are all on the believers side. Not only the assertion there is a God but that he has comissioned a few books, you know him and he cares about all of us.
Now that's outlandish, and you say this without one speck of proof for any of those assertions.
Besides the point that the Burden of Proof is on the side of religion:
Everything connected with this "god" thing has its foundation completely in the sphere of human culture . Places of Worship, so-called "holy" texts, rituals, processions, prayer etc. All of it are purely human inventions .
On the other hand, everybody who tried to prove the existence of anything supernatual outside the sphere of human culture has failed spectacularly . Prayer does not heal amputees, never ever occurred such a thing. People don't lose weight when they die, no soul leaves the body. Natural disasters strike randomly, without any preference for anybody "sinful" or "pure". Appearances of Mary on a piece of bread are simply pareidolia, an effect of human neurophysiology.
And this is my proof that "god" does not exist: Every aspect, without exception, of this "god" has its origin in human culture and psychology. This "god" is fundamentally the same thing as Harry Potter, Unicorns or Klingons.
Ergo: "God" exists, but only as OUR invention. He is a fictional character . This is the best, most consistent explanation compatible with the observed facts.
Do you have any doubts that Haruhi Suzumiya doesn't exist? I would like to hear one proof that God isn't a cute tsundere girl. If you are to make such outlandish statements, perhaps you would like to back them up?

Last time I heard, the God of the Bible didn't have his own anime series, so I guess the real God Haruhi Suzumiya is one up on yours , Georgia. And the real difference? At least we can see Haruhi.
I've made the assertion that Haruhi Suzumiya exists. I have presented the evidence - certainly photographic - that backs up my assertion. My burden is thus removed. I'm free. The yoke of your own Burden of Proof is far heavier than even that of the mythological ancient Greek Titan Atlas, it seems. Like I say...:
That which is asserted without evidence, can be dismissed without evidence.
Ergo, Atheism. QED. Haruhiism. FSMism. Invisible Pink Unicornism. Church of the SubGeniusism. Your call, Georgia.
Biblical Prat falls, more like! >:D
My creator? well I have two: my mom and my dad... oh! You mean the invisible all knowing omnipotent sky sorcerer who can be deceived and betrayed and doesn't do anything except from your claims of him removing warts and finding your reading glasses? Well, the burden of proof lies on you, so YOU prove he exists.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
