Based on the available evidence, God probably doesn't exist.

I want to start this debate from a less philosophical position, and consider human experience.1. The majority of people through recorded history have believed in intelligent, superior beings. - This is not offered as proof of God’s existence, but as evidence that we have this craving built into us as a species.2. Recorded history is full of stories of people encountering a god or gods. - You need to provide a rational for ignoring their testimony that does not include circular reasoning (eg “there are no gods so they must be mistaken or lying” is circular based on your faith based beliefs that there are no gods)3. There is great evidence that many people who claim an encounter with God are greatly changed by the experience. This is evidence they really believed their claim of hearing from God. 4. Living eye witnesses will tell you of their encounter with God, and how it changed their life. This eye witness testimony of God's involvement in a person's life is strong evidence. There are also a number of philosophical / scientific arguments for the existence of God as creator of the universe.5. Cosmological arguments Kalam cosmological argument goes back to early Christians who disagreed with Aristotle’s view of the eternity of the universe. The KCA takes this form 1) everything that begins to exist has a cause 2) the universe began to exist 3) therefore the universe had a cause - God is that “first cause of all things” according to the KCA There are also the Thomis (TCA) and Leibnizian (LCA) cosmological arguments.6. Ontological arguments These are mostly about existence or the state of being. One example of this is from Anselm of Canterbury in 1078 AD - “Anselm defined God as ‘that than which nothing greater can be conceived’, and then argued that this being could exist in the mind. He suggested that, if the greatest possible being exists in the mind, it must also exist in reality. If it only exists in the mind, a greater being is possible—one which exists in the mind and in reality” [1]7. Teleological arguments, or arguments from design. These are arguments based on empirical evidence of the design and purpose of nature. These are difficult to dispute, so most opponents point to the variety of views about god and then claim we can’t know who is right about the character and identity of this god, but that is actually a different debate. Here are some common presentations in this area: - The watch maker - This is an old analogy saying that the parts are designed so well that there must be a designer. - Irreducible Complexity - This is the idea that some things can not be produced by the combination of random chance and natural selection. There is a certain minimum number of parts working together for a design to function, and natural selection will work against these parts being present (and serving no function) so the more complex the system, the less likely it is to exist by random chance and natural selection. - Fine Tuning - So many of the constants of physics seem designed to produce exactly this world. For example, if water was more dense as a solid (like almost everything else) there could be no life on earth because oceans and lakes would be frozen solid from the bottom up. If gravity was more or less there would be no life. The more details we discover of physics and biology the more this fine tuning stands out.8. God’s self revelation to individuals and cultures.Good luck to PROPRO states “Based on the available evidence, God probably doesn't exist.”Pro needs a few definitions. The less defined his proposition, the more difficulty PRO has proving “God probably doesn't exist.” - probably - very likely [2] - probable - supported by evidence strong enough to establish presumption but not proof [3]I generally prefer less “wiggle room” than the word probably introduces, but PRO has a hard enough position - God [4]1(in Christianity and other monotheistic religions) the creator and ruler of the universe and source of all moral authority; the supreme being. 2 (god) (in certain other religions) a superhuman being or spirit worshipped as having power over nature or human fortunes; a deity:[1] http://en.wikipedia.org...[2] http://www.yourdictionary.com...[3] http://www.merriam-webster.com...[4] http://oxforddictionaries.com...
