I have to acknowledge that I can't prove that god doesn't exist.
We don't know what it really means to exist. In fact, we don't know what space really is either. And neither do we know what flowing Time is. Yes, your perceptions give you a picture of these concepts, but it's incomplete and wrong. Space isn't a solid, fixed structure and neither is time. In a sentence - we don't know what the universe is and how it is. In light of these baffling physical findings - it's a bit premature if not childish to base your opinion on perceptional evidence sought in your personal experience. I am going to put this in bold because it tends to get overlooked a lot by certain ideologies:
"Physics doesn't know where it is that you atheists are conducting your search for the evidence of the non-existence of God. All that can be meaningfully said by any physicist of today(July 2009) is that you are looking for the evidence in your subjective personal experience."
And all I really believe is that we shouldn't assume he exists before anything has been proven or observed.
Agreed, but you already assumed that you know what to exist means and you don't. I think most people would agree that gods don't exist in our perceptions, though.
