Athiest: I can't see god, therefore he doesn't exist
Unfortunately for you, I don't think there are any atheists who would make such a stupid argument.
If you replace 'see' with 'find any evidence whatsoever for that isn't a bunch of lies, circular reasoning, strawmen, or other invalid arguments', then yes, that is an argument many atheists will make.
"Athiest: I can't see god, therefore he doesn't exist
Me to Athiest: I can't see your brain, therefore you don't have one."
Atheist's response: I can't see your heart, therefore you are dead. And "i before e" doesn't apply to "atheist" while we're at it.
Well, if a doctor were to examine the body of a once living, walking and talking person, and found NO BRAIN inside their head, to me that'd be evidence of some higher power. Unfortunately miracles like this don't really happen, ever. :(

Atheist: Sorry, since you're a stickler, let me rephrase that: No one has ever detected God anywhere, by any means . OK, your turn.
Yeah, that's not why we don't believe in God. We don't believe in God because we have absolutely no way of detecting its presence.
There are many things we can't see that we have evidence for, such as radio waves, and yes, even YOUR BRAIN.
1) One can see a brain through a CAT/MRI scan
2) Athiests don't make such stereotypical and stupid arguments.
3) Why do crazies, like you, post on GameTalk.com? Last time I checked, video games and religion don't exactly go together.
You lose.
Just ask my neurologist from Gothenburg; he'll show you my brain on the two EEG's, one computer tomography and one MRI.
Is there any scientific equipment that can show us your god? As opposed to anyone else's god, that is.
Oh, and it's atheist, not athiest. How hard can it be?
Okay, don't believe that I have a brain. Your opinion on that subject does not matter to me in the slightest. Heck, tell all your friends that I don't have a brain. It still doesn't impact my life in any way. And, if your faith is as solid as you seem to be implying, my opinion on the subject shouldn't matter to you either.
As far as I am concerned, the disagreement between us is only a problem when you try to substitute ancient myth for science and biblical law for law based on sense and sanity.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
