The reason why I and many others do not believe in god is simply because there isn't any evidence to suggest they he exists, as I've mentioned in another post recently science is slowly answering all the big questions we have with no supreme deity in sight.
If there was some actual hard evidence of this beings existence I would quite happily throw my hands up and declare how wrong I have been on the subject but as it stands there is currently not a single iota of evidence to say otherwise.

Whose god is right.

Interesting.. so now we must see god to believe in him?

You are 100% correct even though you were trying to be sarcastic.
My faith no longer counts....... I have been visited by God back in the late 90's because I have seen him my faith no longer counts. I cried out for months asking him to reveal himself and he did. How did it happen? I was listening to religious music when driving home .... actually I was singing along and then there he was .......he sat in the passenger seat listening as well with a smile on his face.

God is light and there is no darkness within him at all this is what John said Jesus taught him. God is one way only. God is perfectly light.
What light is God?
The light of life - agape - selfless love.
Emotions are a physical thing, Fear is for survival for example. perfect love casts out fear.
Love according to Jesus is loving thy neighbor as thyself, in other words treating others as you would like to be treated.
This is why John also says that when we love Each other God lives within us and God is Love.
Love is Order.
Love is Truth.
Based on Jesus's teaching of Love, love is not an emotion but an intention. It follows with action of actually trying to treat others fairly like you would like to be treated.
It's important to not confuse yourself by romanticizing God. There is a difference between Romance, human emotion and pure love - agape - selfless love.

Not much actually....... he just looked out the front window as I drove.... smiling. I was struck by his appearance and by the time I gathered my thoughts together he left and quick as he came. A very big man! Well over six foot tall, he looked like someone who has been working out with free weights.
I could see the passenger door through him. I could see through him......he was made up of like small white dots (like the old matrix printer and how it printed out text).
I have never seen anything like this before. I hope someday you too will see it.

So what exactly makes you think this was god that you saw? A 6ft tall, see through muscular man doesn't exactly conform with the accepted image of god
