Why do atheist need to see to believe in God? Where is your faith?

Then Jesus told him, "Because you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed." John 20:29

He answered, "A wicked and adulterous generation asks for a sign! But none will be given it except the sign of the prophet Jonah. Mathew:12:39

    You can believe in a god if you want. I do not care. However, if you want atheists to believe in a god then you need to present them tangible evidence to support that a god exists. If you cannot do that then you will just have to accept there will be people who do not believe in a god or gods. If there is no evidence you will have to accept that there will be more and more atheists as time goes by.

    Faith in what?

    Faith that there is a magical being that created everything?

    Faith that a book that was written many many moons ago that is filled with talking snakes, water walker and magic is real?

    Faith that this so called "god" wiped everyone out and killed many is something I want to dedicate my life to?

    Faith that after I die there is a magical place called Heaven that I will go to and keep living?

    I think I will stick with reality, thanks.

    Only a fool would base important decisions on faith alone

    If I told you that I have an invisible pink unicorn living in my basement and every 10 minutes he farts Skittles and rainbows would you believe me or have 'faith' that what I said was true without any evidence?

    Seriously and for the umpteenth time, evidence and/or proof of existence is not code for casting my baby blues in god's direction and seeing his hairy back rise up in my field of vision. If you got yourself a real education you'd understand this.
