Simple Rationality

"If god is all knowing, he knows what he would have to do to make me believe he exists, and he would know that what he has shown so far isn't good enough for me.

If god is
all powerful, he would be able to do it.

And if god is
all good, he would want me to believe in him, especially if he condemns me to eternal torture for the petty crime of not believing without adequate evidence.

If god wants me to believe, he will have to give me a reason to.

Since he hasn't, I conclude he doesn't exist.

And if he punishes me because he wouldn't show himself to me, then he is guilty for my punishment."
-Stephen F. Roberts
