Best Answer

Most people adopt the atheist position after a logical review of the data supplied by religion as to why religion is reasonable. This review suggests that the "proof" supplied by religions is in the form of fallacious arguments. No logical or demonstrable proof (in the scientifically acceptable sense) is provided by any religious authority.
