Throughout history, Mankind has always been looking for some entity to worship. Something or someone to hold hopes for. Sometimes it is Zeus the greek God, others it is Ra' from ancient Egypt or Shamash from the Akkadian Civilisation. Sometimes it is a man like Jesus, or Ali or saints of Christians and Muslims Sufis. Sometimes it is Buddah, sometimes it is Kami sama and others it is Napoleon, Hitler, Gamal AbdulNasser, or possibly Kim Jung Un.
This observation of how humans tend to follow a religion or to follow a person in a religious manner is implanted within the DNA of every human and into the depths of his nature. It does not matter what you believe in as long as you believe in something. However, this fact became less and less observable in Europe since the revolutions against the church and was replaced bit by bit by the atheistic movement. This is happening now in Egypt as a side effect of our failed revolution of 25th of Jan. And though atheism is against the idea of gods, and has proven in some cases "The God's delusion" - A book I have yet to read - as once wrote Richard Dawkins, Humanity is still chained with the religious nature of actions and beliefs.
Due to these chains, one cannot prove the non-existence of a god unless being under the effect of a reaction "a religious reaction" against religions. On the other hand one cannot prove the existence of a god while being chained to his human nature. This is why the nature of god and its existence is debatable for thousands of years.
How can you prove that what you see is all it is there? How can you prove of something you do not have any grasp on? and how can you prove whether this thing is existent or not?
And the billion dollar question. How can you prove or disprove the existence of god while you are "as a human" biased towards either your nature or your reaction against the church "as a symbol to religion" and because you are biased, you will always be religious even if you are an atheist.
Proving/disproving a god has proven to be more tedious and troublesome than proving/disproving that aliens exist. And that is because what we know about ourselves is not enough yet to conclude an unbiased method for observation and philosophy. And therefore the struggle continues and the absurdness will be the new theme of this world as it was the old theme of it.
