Yourself?
Firstly, I am not a believer in one almighty deity, but neither would I call myself an atheist. As I view mouth foaming atheists with the same distain as I do religious zealots.

The sentence above however does make me laugh though.

Neither you, I or anyone else can disprove the existence of an almighty superbeing in the same way that it can't be proven that one exists.

To try to do so is a complete waste of time, as this thread is testament to.

I'll keep my options open for now, you see I am a believer of evolution. Arguing ID and creationism "at this level" are IMO just plain silly and to say otherwise exposes you as not being rational.

However, can I say that some superbeing did not create the universe and the rules therein? no I can't.

It is a perfectly arguable point of view that a superbeing created the universe and the laws within that universe thereby creating the very science, facts and logic you are using to disprove the beings very existence.

Therefore for a happy and healthy life, don't worry about it.

Now there are many other discussion points in regards to the pro's and con's of "religion" but that is not what the title of the thread is about.
