Let's turn that around for a moment. How would *you* cope if
somebody provided you with irrefutable proof that none of your
gods could possibly exist?
If you'd like to find out, then all you have to do is tell me
what, exactly, your gods are. Define them, if you will.
``My god, <insert name here>, is nothing if she / he / it isn't
<insert essential property here>.''
Common answers for the first include, ``YHWH,'' ``Jesus,''
``Allah,'' and the like; for the second, it's usually
``omnipotent,'' ``omnibenevolent,'' ``the creator of Life, the
Universe, and Everything,'' and so on.
