Well, it's impossible to show proof it isn't true.
Because faith is what people have-which is believing in things unseen.
So, my question to you is, when Faith is what people use to believe in God, how can you EVER prove it untrue?
The very essence of faith is believing in things with no proof.
So yours is a moot point.
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 74989921 Proof is the burden of one making a positive claim. If you say "God exists" you have to provide proof, but you cannot use "you can't prove me wrong, thus I might be right" because it is a fallacy. There are dragons, unicorns, pixies, fairies and blob monsters around. Can you prove me wrong? If no, then it means they are real. Its the same analogy. This is a slippery slope, op. It is true that the burden of proof is on the one making the positive claim, but this is also something all materialistic atheists ignore all the time when they trot out the unicorns and flying teapots and think they scored some kind of kill shot. So, to the atheists in the room who insist that the world consists of nothing more than matter and that when you die, you simply cease to exist, I would ask, where is your evidence? Note that I am not saying anything else is true, merely pointing out that the cardinal tenets of materialistic atheism are just as faith based as any religion and is in fact as much a religion or belief system as any other.    The worst thing you can do is cite one source and then do the "BOOM HEADSHOT I WIN FTW" You mentioned millions of miracles. post a 700 club video and then claim victory. No. IF you are trying to prove him wrong you will need more then a first hand witness. You need multiple people who have had the same experience describing the same thing so someone can take all that information into a pattern. It's what CSI and NCIS does on tv. But your problem is there is so few faith 'things' that the millions you said happen every year cant be tracked. You really need to get with your local church so they start tracking these miracles. If you think about it, the churches have ignored and not categorized these millions of miracles WHICH IS theiR jOB but have just been building houses for the cleregy and buying planes.You need to talk to your Bishop on edit: Boom headshot. :) edit2: FTW!!!!!!
