"None of us has ever seen the wind: we can’t because it’s invisible air. We can, however, see the results of its action, feel it on our skin and know without a doubt that it’s there. Just as we can see the results of the life of Christ on the world.
I believe it is wilful ignorance and is written to trap the unwary. I believe it is just one of Satan’s many ploys."
Smoke introduced into the airstream during wind tunnel tests - to determine the effect (or hopefully not, for the designers!) of aerodynamics - on model or actual size vehicles or aircraft.
...and for my next trick, atoms & molecules can be seen using Electron Microscopes. Distant galaxies, previously unseen by astronomers? Hubble Space Telescope. And Rainbows don't actually physically exist...:

No, tyronehster, you are the ignorant.
And then all fundies were argumentally trapped.
1 Thessalonians 5:21 (KJV) not only forces you to destroy your own 'beliefs' via using the very Scientific Method used by we Atheists to prove the existence of Reality which contradicts your so-called Bible 'Truth', it still keeps the Burden Of Proof on you to demonstrate what you keep claiming - the existence of your 'God' - to our satisfaction. Either way, so what if your 'beliefs'/'faith' are destroyed in the process? Not our problem.
'What is wanted is not the will to believe, but the will to find out, which is the exact opposite.'
'And if there were a God, I think it very unlikely that he would have such an uneasy vanity as to be offended by those who doubt his existence.'

Moral: Bad Analogies. Use of such renders fundies' arguments - like their 'claims' of the existence of a 'God' - invalid.
