How much further can you pull back?

So far the atheists have shown that while we cannot disprove god -- the same way nobody can disprove tooth fairies and unicorns -- that is not a good reason to believe. If it was so, then I would believe in unicorns too, just because you cannot disprove them. We've shown that the current scientific theories are more than enough to account for an universe without a god. We've provided links to sources where you can learn more about these theories. If science is good enough to build nuclear bombs and airplanes, spaceships, and pretty much everything you see around you, don't you think it's just a little bit arrogant to say it cannot be right about religion ?
Look back at your posts, how have you defended your point of view ? By insulting the people who have defended theirs with palpable evidence and saying "this is how things are. why ? because I say so. and you're an idiot for not thinking like me".
It's because of all the above that I actually feel sorry for you. You will NEVER change your mind, not even if all the evidence is piled in front of you. I would change mine, if I was given evidence. I don't say all the scientific theories are correct or that we know everything, that's the information we have to work with now. It's just like evolution, you need to be wrong most of the time in order to come up with something right.
The proof that science is in the good path ?
^^ earth as seen by Voyager 1, about 4 billion miles away, taken in 1990.
^^ sunset on mars, taken by the mars rovers
For me, the above is beautiful. Only through science have we been able to see how insignificant our home planet is (while some religious people STILL believe, amazingly, that the earth IS the center of the universe to this day), and only through science have we been able to see the sunset on alien planets.
Science has shown to people that want to see it things that are indeed beautiful. Religion is about believing something that cannot be seen is beautiful.
