52. Evidence for god is rather easy
If you can get god to cooperate or he wants his existance to be known. A reclusive or reluctant god is a bit more problematic but there should still be ways to gather evidence for ones existance. Note that evidence for the existance of a god does not mandate that we actualy get a sample of god or some such nonsense. Simply finding evidence of some occurrence or event caused by god should suffice. Specifically something there are any number of ways such evidence could be had. Unless of course the argument is there is no difference between a universe with god and one without god.

The actual problem is no good definition of god has been forthcoming from his proponants. Or put another way all the arguments for god that are testable have been refuted. It has effectively left the two sides with little to argue beyond does to/does not. This is perhaps why the anthropomorphic argument of creation has gained so much ground in recent years. It thinks it has got ahold of some statistics that make atheist scientists uncomfortable. Unfortunately it's main target is still people who do not understand science and want absolute answers.
