No, I can't, and that's exactly the point: you cannot prove that something doesn't exist, and extraordanary claims require extraordinary evidence. If I should claim that invisible pink unicorns are real and that there is, in fact, one in my room right now who speaks to me and touches me (in a good way, you pervert ;)), then it's up to me to prove that that is so.

and there we have the basis of many (most) religions summed up in a nutshell

belief and/or faith

I'd rather believe in pink unicorns than God any day. At least there hasn't been any wars fought in the name of pink unicorns. Saying that, I haven't read the last Harry Potter book, so who knows :shrug:

Yeah...there is definitely neverending and everlasting debate here...

For me...it's definitely more about faith than religion...I am not religious in any conventional sense of the word...but I consider myself very religious in a sense that I do keep the faith...no matter what...

Religion is faith, faith isn't necessarily religion. So you can have faith without being religious.

Since I was talking about myself personally, for me faith is a religion...

He merely guides us by what is right and wrong if we are prepared to listen to it.

I know some of you won't agree; I am just putting forward the counter-argument.

He didn't - mostly humans did.

I tend not to get into the whole religion debate because being a student of BSc science (BioChem) I can't help but feel slightly biased. However, when people say things like 'Human's created most diseases', I have to but in and say you are wrong, just plain wrong.
