Prove that God exists

it's relevant Runa because you're asking people to prove an abstract thought, which simply isn't possible. Knowing that going in, proof of God becomes nothing more than a fools game. I am not a spiritual person myself, I don't necessarily believe in any God... but I cannot ask someone else, who does believe, to provide me proof of their Gods existence.
Those that wrote the bible or the Koran were smart enough to understand the fundamental problem with spirituality, it cannot be stretched across a counter to be examined, or held up to the sunlight. It's a belief and there will be those of us that doubt it. Maybe, like me, you have a scientific mind that asks for more, substance is a very reassuring and necessary componant for belief, but, you won't find that in religion. Religion demands you suspend those questions of it, those proofs... and as it does so, it leaves it proponents with nothing to show the skeptics but faith. Again, that's why my first post is relevant, you cannot prove faith, only accept it for what it is and asking others to prove that God is real is no different than me asking you to prove that you'll wake up tomorrow. You can't do it, so it's better left alone.

While I agree you can't substantiate an abstract thought, I'm calling out those who claim that God(or zeus or whatever) is a real thing and should be treated as such. If you believe in God, or Mohammed or whatever religion you follow, I fully endorse that and I'm certainly not aiming to belittle that.  I AM, however, getting sick of those who believe shoving it in everybody else's face, pushing it as absolute, undeniable truth while failing to back it up.  

God is a concept, a human creation...but there are many who insist there really IS a higher power controlling us, a sentient, divine being that is omniscient, onminpresent, and omnipotent.  

That's the difference.
