Right, the 'have you ever seen one million dollars?' argument. Why is there this sentiment that atheists can't prove the absence of god? I don't have magical powers that let me speak to things that are not physically there....Does being a person of faith give you magical powers or something? I've flat out tried talking to god, and you know what happened? Nothing. It's just silly, and that's the bottom line of supernatural beliefs, they are just not rational. There's another old saying...If you tell a lie enough times, you'll start believing it yourself.

Round and round we go.

EDIT: I just realized how much this post sounds like the end of Bill Maher's film....Oh well.
