Logical fundamental often missed by the credulous

"OK, I can't prove God exists, but you can't prove He doesn't."

The implication, of course, is that the conversation is now on even ground. But there is a fundamental difference between these two views: I can't prove God doesn't exist, because it is a logical impossibility, you can't prove He does, because you lack the evidence.

Logically speaking, the existence of God is provable. So if He really exists, why can't anyone prove it?

Richard Dawkins Foundation for Reason and Science EIN
