    Faith is the belief in something without having any proof.
 
    God decrees that Faith in Him is necessary to get into heaven/ be a
 Christian. (see text)
 
    Invalidating anything God says is a no-no.
 
    Therefore (and I wish I could make my three dot triangle here) to prove
 God is impossible.
 
    If it were possible there would be no reason for Faith. In fact, if
 you proved it then Christianity would become part of science. (Science is
 a cheap whore; it doesn't care who it gets its facts from).
 
    So really, what are the theists trying to get at by arguing for God's
 existance with Atheists. And as for the atheists, well you guys should
 know better than to pick a fight with someone who believes in magic.

Jay, You're Killing Me. This is the Douglas Adams argument against God.

Your definition of faith is a bit lacking ;) Faith is faith in a person, not
an idea.
