See, the thing is, when you say that a belief that has lasted the entirety of civilized man is false, the burden of proof is upon the skeptic. That's the way it works.
What belief are you talking about, Christianity or religion in general? Religion is what, 5,000 years old? Christianity is only a little over 2,000 years old. In fact, using your same logic, since judaism is older than christianity, it must be more truthful too.
So with that in mind, can any of you give any sort of factual proof that God is fake?
You think that what you said has any basis? You can't prove he is real (oh, that's up to HIM to do...) and only common sense can prove he isn't real. How do we know Mickey Mouse isn't a real living being; according to your logic he might be...but some of us just know better.
