To be totally correct, the question is, does a deity exist? It's impossible to prove it does not. It's a negative. That's what all the theoretical people say. And, in all honestly, there is no physical proof of a deity. You can't point to it. Science is coming closer and closer to a plausible explanation of the Universe, without a deity. Humans have a history of believing in gods. Most believe because they believe, and that is satisfying for them. Yet, that same hunam history has many gods. The most powerful ancient Egyptian god, Osiris, was worshiped for over 2,000 years. We still have remnants of his temples. He was worshiped until the 4th century AD, when Christians slaughtered those, who worshiped the "pagan" god. Today, Osisis is considered a myth; but to those ,who chose to die for their belief, he was a god. Most of the comments about a deity here, have been concerned with a Christian ideation of a deity. I think those, who advocate the existence of a deity, also have offer evidense of what is the true deity.
